Portsmouth, NH

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.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

A good bass fishing pond should have clear water, ample aquatic vegetation, and plenty of brush piles. These features provide necessary cover and suitable habitat for bass, allowing them to thrive. Ponds should have more shallow water than deep water to support bass activities during the summer. In warm weather, bass tend to stay in water that is no deeper than 5 or 6 feet. Ensuring these characteristics will create an environment conducive to both the growth and health of bass populations. Clear water allows sunlight to penetrate, promoting the growth of aquatic plants that provide food and shelter for various organisms. Aquatic vegetation, such as water willows and lily pads, offers bass hiding spots to ambush prey and escape predators. Brush piles add structure to the pond, creating additional habitats for smaller fish and insects that serve as food for bass. Shallow areas warm up more quickly, making them ideal feeding grounds during cooler mornings and evenings. Properly designed ponds with these elements can support a diverse and abundant fish community, enhancing the overall fishing experience with a more productive environment.Our newest FreshBaitz Mandingo Trick Worm is the ultimate game-changer for anglers with a passion!
