Well I am not dead or floating lost in the Atlantic, but I also don't have any good footage to post. We went offshore about 25 miles south of Montauk Saturday on a mission to spear a mako shark. I drifted in a chum slick for 4 hours and saw nothing. We had a huge great hammerhead cruise by the boat but it didn't hang out long enough for us to get in the water. Not that we could/would have shot it. I would have liked to have gotten some video of it but oh well. I got some video of a big sunfish I swam with and a huge pod of Atlantic dolphins but otherwise just a bunch of me floating in a lot of blue water and blood.

"but it didn't hang out long enough for us to get in the water..." I thought you were going to say "GET OUT" of the water....

The fishing kayak that Dick's sells. Nothing special but gets him out when I'm not around to use the John boat with him. We have been using them more and more. Just so easy to grab and go.That is a HAWG. What kayak is your father riding in by the way?
Actually very comfortable, it's my first kayak and it's a lot more stable than I expected . I'm sure the more expensive kayaks are better in all categories, but for the money it does what I ask.Nice fish! How comfortable are those things?

They are very convenient. Only thing I added was an anchor trolley system, any slight wind blows you around and it's great in rivers to position yourself where you wantThanks! I'm going to need to try one of those out one of these days.
Every year I talk big about getting out there for stripers and killin' it. Every year I spend a shitload of time in late Spring/ early Summer hitting my favorite spots and usually pull a handful of nice keepers out of the surf and then I'm just a lazy fart for the rest of the summer.
I always feel like the dog days of summer are the times you really need a boat to catch lunkers but tysdad115 proves me wrong every freakin' time.
Nice fish man.
She is one "fat pig of a fish"… hope you catch her mother!!!38# catch and release. Fat pig of a fish .

That is awesome. I've yet to get any striper on the grill this year.
Things change,Monomy was slow Monday and Tuesday…but there are a good bunch of bass outside the cut!Looks like you guys had a hell of a day... I went out two weeks ago off of monomoy Island...6 guys...we caught 2 bass all day...slowest day I've EVER had striped bass fishing.
