Hi All ! Went on to diagnose this issue and found the contacts for the engine cycle and calibration pot were slightly corroded. cleaned both with electrical cleaner and put the tack back in and adjusted it to actual engine speed. All set....... If anyone has this issue you may be able to get away by...

Hi All ! I am well aware of how the Bogo Grip works. If my post was read carefully it reads I owned a Boga grip and I sold it after I discovered the lipper. It is much easier to use and quicker that is exactly why I switched. If it was not that way I would still have my Boga.... The 60 pound Lipper ...

Hi All ! Yes the lipper is all stainless and mine is 4 years old and its seen many a dive session with just a rinse off. I liked my Bogo but you had to close the jaws yourself and the Lipper is spring loaded so when you get one half of the jaws in the fishes mouth , you just pusg the button and the ...

Mac: I believe you are correct. I have fished around some and one tech told me the Honda tachs have a calibration screw inside that is adjusted to various engine sizes. Move it from its original position then return it to it original position and retest. Its no big deal. The engine run perfect , jus...

Hi All ! Thought I would post this to see if anyone has anyone had a problem like this. This past weekend I started to notice that my Tach was reading higher than the engine was actually turning. It was reading about 1000 RPM at idle and 7000 RPM at WOT throttle when the engine should have hit the r...

Welder: Save your money and go with a Lipper ! Features automatic release, 60Lb calibrated scale and a very nice leather sheath. Quality is just as good as the Boga and half the cost. I had a Boga and after using the Lipper I sold the Boga on Ebay. Much easier to use and much less money with better ...

Hi All ! Azores is a place you have to see ! I can go on and one about he sights and views but it would not do it justice...... Finally found the best tackle shop on this volcanic island. Purchased some surface tuna jigs made here. Made some friends in the port that fish the region. Mega fish abound...

Hi All ! Touched down a 7am this morning after a quick 4 hour flight out of Bean town. :thumbsup: Whoa !!!!!!!!!!! I did not think that A310 was going be able to stop on the runway ! No 747s for San Miguel ! Spent the entire morning looking around for a tackle shop........ :deadhorse: This place is ...

Alloy : Isn't it fun being offshore in big seas ! I love that stuff ....that is why I cannot wait for the fall Canyon trips :thumbsup: Only the hardy need apply. I sure with they would make that Oak Bluffs Shark Tourney a catch and release only. I know registration on that tourney is dropping too. A...

Ahhhhhh! Gulp this ! Go with Full rigged squid and a sand eel teaser if you want a monster ! Ask any Fluke sharpy and they all say the same thing (you want big fluke you use big bait ! ) Fluke are aggressive sight feeders and will inhale huge baits with no problem at all while they watch these small...

Alloy: From sources I trust I have been told they are taking 22" in and around that size all the way to the Warwick light. I myself do not bother with shallow water much. I stick to the deep lumps and bumps. I have only taken one huge fluke in the bay and that was about ten years back. I lost t...

Welder:

Best eatin summer fish around ! Those monster Seabass fight like Bluefish too

Alloy! That big Seabass to the right is 20" ! I was happy with the big one before it for my tourney register, but the 20" engulfed my mojo fluke rig ! So I doubt anyone is going to beat that one for last month ! :thumbsup: That fluke was a 26.5" ...the 30 my buddy has just about cover...

Hi All !


Here are some R.I. Sea Monsters !

Hi All ! Glad I could point you in the correct direction. The Surfix slides work great and the hull slides off and on easily too. These Alloy hulls have their quirks just as any other boat but even so they are alot less hassle. Alot easier to fix when needed too :thumbsup: Still waiting for that win...

Alloy: I wrote a fairly long post on this very problem you found with your hulls bottom corrosion on the bunk area. I don't know where it is, maybe Welder can find it, but in short is the creation of a very large battery. You have the hull, the trailer and the wet bunk as acid. The bunk being soaked...

Hi All: If any have not heard there is a posted shark warning for coastal New England waters. Great White shark in excess of 15 feet have been sighted near the Cape and Islands area. So when you hook Charlie you best get it on board pronto ! Forget the fight ! Kill it and grill it ! Anyone with an A...

Welder: Most electronic control alternators will continue to run an engine management system if the batteries are disconnected however there will a very high voltage spike (over 200V) when the disconnect takes place and sensitive electronics are very likely to be damaged. The battery act just like a...

Hi All: I thought I could help out a little here on this battery subject. Batteries are a very complex subject as of late and I will explain. For our purpose there are basicly lead acid, AGM and Gell Cell batteries. They all have their advantages and disadvantages. First Lead acid (wet cell) are bro...

Alloy ! Yes it was a great day as far as weather. Those S Westerlies will get ya later in the day :thumbsup: . I wanted to fish the extreme east side so I opted to launch from Westport. Makes for a nice easy ride home later in the day. Wish I had a bigger truck then I would launch from there more of...

Hi All ! Whew ! what great weather Saturday......hit the famous Sakonet outflow early in the morning. Arrived at 6am and the fleet of boats just grew and grew. Good news is 3 alloys in that group. I believe Alloy Toy was in that crowd if i am correct. Launched out of Westport this day and it makes f...

Hi All ! Np polish, that fish is fresh out of a saltwater/Ice sloth in the cooler. I leave them in the mixture overnight . I makes the filet job much easier. Funny it did not look that shiny to me on the cutting board. That is a 24" cutting board by the way. Easy to see that flatty goes 26.5 . ...

Hi All: Put some more time prowling my known producing spots Saturday. Weather was perfect with a SE breeze to set up perfect drifts. Water temp still in the mid Fitties so Fluke and Sea Bass are still not as agressive as they will become. While drifting across one of my charted holes this big guy i...

Alloy The scoop wit the Bazz is (for you troll guys) umbrell rigs seem to be very productive . Areas I constantly here is Ponham Light and Squantum Assn. That would put rite on and feather the edge of the main channel. Most that are hooking on umbrella rigs are taking high twenties to mid thirties. ...

Here are the facts : The powers have decided that every effort will be made to save this drill head because there is money to be made. Now that this mess has happened you can bet your life that they are not going to collapse the well head. They need the money to pay for this mess. Another fact ........
