A couple lobster fishing off the coast of Massachusetts spotted five enormous sharks surrounding their boat — all frighteningly larger than the vessel itself. Check out the video here.

“It’s getting to be re-goddamn-diculous” was quoted by John Wayne, but I don’t think he was talking about the recent south winds, even though most South Jersey anglers feel that way. Fluke fishing has been very tough in most of the bays with dirtier water, but anglers working the incoming tides are finding the right mix of temperature and clarity. It’s not all negative as the ocean side is showing some definite positive signs of life with fluke beginning to bite at the reef sites. The wrecks are still loaded with keeper sea bass and ling, and most shops said to bring clams with you if you’re targeting ocean fluke. Bluefin have been biting as close as 5 miles out around mid-island LBI and as far out as the Resor. Madd Mantis poppers have been the ticket according to most local tackle shops. The surf was very good this past week for kingfish, croakers and even some nice spot. Thankfully, it looks like we will be getting some better winds in the forecast, so that should only help the bite in shallow.

Southern New Jersey Fishing Report- July 18, 2024

New York City, NY

The Eastern Long Island Fishing Report is compiled and written by writer/blogger and fly-fishing industry professional, Jack Larizadeh (@jack.lariz). Bill at Chasing Tails Bait and Tackle in Oakdale reports: “Another solid week in the books for fluke season. The bay is loaded with flatties and some impressive fish have come up over the rails. Bouncing jigs on light tackle has proved to be the most effective. Colorful soft plastics hanging add a little extra enticing movement to the jig. Fish light, because some of the bites are very subtle. Sea bass fishing on the outside reefs and wrecks has been insanely good. Drop down a slow-pitch jig, bucktail, or regular ol’ rig. The bite is hot! Summer striped bass fishing action is starting to pop up here and there if you know where to look. They’ll be keyed in on specific baits, so match the hatch and you’re in! Snappers and blue claw crabs are showing up at the local docks and providing lots of summer fun for the whole family. The tuna bite is insane. Jigging, popping, trolling, it’s all working. Tons of solid yellows and mondo blues are out lurking and making for some incredible days on the ocean.”

Former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick, 72, and his 23-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, aren’t letting the chatter about their age-gap sack their romance. 

The newly unveiled couple showed off some PDA following a dinner date at the exclusive club, The Boarding House, with pals in Nantucket, Mass. on Wednesday night. 

In photos obtained by the Daily Mail, Hudson could be seen firmly holding onto her beau’s arm as they strolled down the cobblestone streets of the picturesque island.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

“We got em’ boiling in the corner. Change your baits. Fresh one!” I could hear the sound of heavy braid getting ripped off a conventional so fast that I was sure the guy to my left was going to get spooled. “Coming down to your right!” My neighbor’s fish immediately darted to the portside corner of the transom of the 75-foot sportfishing boat, The San Diego. This fish moved so fast that the angler was stumbling and tripping as he followed his line around the rail of the boat. Five to ten minutes later, I heard him call, “Gaff on the bow,” followed by a celebratory, “Let’s go!”

If you'll indulge me this personal recollection for a moment, growing up, one of my best friends used to spend his entire summers at his family's campsite on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire. When we got old enough, his parents used to give him use of the place and their power boat for a few weekends. And regardless of who among our common circle of friends were there at any given time, those days on the lake are among the happiest memories of my misspent youth. (I'm still sorry about the mess we left that one time. When we were young and irresponsible, we were young and irresponsible.)

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.
