Pulled up some 35, market price getting better. Coastguard being a pain you know where. Rumors they are selling confiscated fish at Nantucket if you have over 15 fish and not giving you the fine if you are in fed. waters. If true we now have modern Pirates. They will be out for me now...

Hi RodMan,

I don't understand? You are allowed up to 30 fish per day on comm days in state waters. Any bass on board in federal waters you will be screwed.

From what I was told ,the fish were caught in Nantucket waters and heading back they cut it to close and were in fed waters. Bam.. the fish were confiscated but no fine was imposed. Don't get me wrong, the CG is a good thing to see, when you are in trouble. I stay out of fed waters, not worth the chance or fines,not for a fish.

Does EVERYBODY know Jimmy...? He's a good guy and an excellent fisherman. What do you think of his Sea Vee?

Now i see what you are talking about the Fed waters. When i fish Nantucket i am running back to Bass River ramp so hard to drift into Fed waters unless the OUZO bottle is opened.

Nor sure what was with the 15 fish, unless they just happened to have 15 fish aboard that were confisicated.

RIP, how do you know Jimmy? If you are into fishing, you will eventually cross his path. You are correct, great guy and he is an excellent fisherman especially when i am on board!

The SeaVee is a true beast! The only way i can describe it is that our boats skip along the water where as his with the single diesel carvers thru!

Nice work Nick!! You guys are going to have a nice long season this year. Didn't Jimmy own a 23 seacraft a long time ago? I think he's the only jeweler with Bluefin Tuna pictures on the wall.

Shrimp,

Yes Jimmy did run a 23 Seacraft for years, years back so i think it is fitting for me to post pics of his catch.

I will see over the winter if i can dig up some old classic pics with him when he was running the 23 Seacraft to post.
He had many ground fishing days where fish filled the boat ankle high, but Finny might find them offensive

Did you make it back to the East? I sent you back an email, but no reply ....
