With the win-and-you’re-in format of the season-ending event on the St. Lawrence River, even the most woebegone slump-sufferer on the Elite Series circuit still has something to fish for. In fact, it’s something pretty big – a Classic berth. While someone could indeed come out of left field to claim the victory, don’t get sucked into picking wild cards this week. If they’re stuck on a bad beat, I think they’re more likely to get further entrenched in the quicksand than they are to pull out a “W.”

On Tuesday, a whale struck and swamped a fishing boat off the coast of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, sending two fishermen into the water. The whale breached the surface just feet from the boat's stern, and it landed with its head on the port-side outboard engine and the boat's transom. The fiberglass boat - far lighter than the whale - immediately flipped to port and dumped the two occupants into the water.

The taxman always gets his share.

Or in this case, he gets the whole thing. Fishermen are always having to keep an eye out for the "taxman," which is what experienced fishers call sharks that lurk behind and around their boats, waiting to steal away their hard-earned catches. It's a really shallow thing to do, but you can't really blame the sharks in the sea for getting an easy meal.

In this clip from 2019 out of Orleans, Massachusetts, it appears that a family had gone out on an excursion with Columbia Sportfishing when the striped bass they had hooked quickly turned...
