  1. Thanks. May be they moved up to MD :). When I left around 3 pm, the surf was as fishy as can be. I suspect that I would caught more if I had stayed into the golden hours with the tide dropping from the high. Yet, there was nobody around fishing. Very few vehicles on the beach. Most were tourists type, few fishermen. In the past, the beach would have been packed this time of the year.
  2. AIMD today, 2 striped ones, a 40" released and a slot fish at 35", all on sand flea. Had another decent sized fish cut off my 50 lb leader. It is either blue or shark, but on fleas? I caught plenty of blues on sand fleas in FL when pompano fishing, but never on AI. When wind switched to E, ocean water was super clean and surf was beautiful. All day only had 3 bites, resulting in 2 fish. Not a single skate or dog fish. Not complaining but unusual for late May.
  3. Never tried shad but if it is similar to herring then it should be ok. Pickled herring is a popular street food in Holland and Norway. It is supposed to be eaten whole. You hold the tail in your hand and drop the whole fish, head first, into your mouth then chew. First time I tried, it felt slimy and took me a while to get it down. It got better after several days, actually became kind of addictive.
  4. Hmmm, US and Europe have been spewing CO2 for centuries which caused the current climate crisis. On per capita basis, each American pollutes 4 times more than either Chinese or Indian right now, but many American still trying to blame others instead of accepting the responsibility.
  5. I had similar experience a few times. I think it is because they are waiting for products to be shipped from China. They should keep enough inventory if the items are listed for sale. These days I just order directly from Ali Express. Shipping time is long but shorter than TD's and the cost saving is huge, several times lower.
  6. Built a lure storage tower using used wire shelves. Easy to build, simply tie them together with zip ties. Easy to see what I have and easy to access.
  7. We got into the current mess all on our own: incompetent government and irresponsible people. Nobody else but ourselves to blame.
  8. NYC is too long a drive. I can take your original offer of $600 shipped. But, are you going to offer some warranty that the rod will arrive without damage? since it is an expensive rod.
  9. Where are you located? If you can meet up, I can offer $500 without shipping to take one. Thanks.
  10. There is a "Nice" brand roto-molded cooler (carried by Home Depot too) on sale on Sierra. 72 quarts for $150, very good price. I have used all sorts of brands, RTIC, Nice, Yeti,...,etc and did not notice too much difference in terms of functions. No point to pay premium price for similar products.
  11. Could I respectably offer $100 shipped?
  12. That is reckless! On average, about 30,000 American got killed every year due to gun violence. That is the price to pay when there are 300 millions guns in the country. Only in America.
  13. Grilled, Salt crusted snakehead I had in Thailand. Delicious! Over there, it is an expensive delicacy.
