Mann’s Saltwater Ghost

by 1 Comment

Mann’s bait company has introduced a cool looking lure called the Mann’s Saltwater Ghost. This bait was designed for redfish, trout, and snook. I bet the Striped bass will feast on it too. They weigh 1/2 ounce and are 3.5 inches long. They are fairly inexpensive at $6.99 and come equipped with Mustad 4/0 doubles and internal rattles. Check out some… ...Read More

Youth Turkey Hunt

Nothing like a youth turkey hunt. There is something to be said about keeping the next generation interested in the great outdoors. TinBoats member BigTerp took his 13 year old brother out for his first turkey hunt. Not even in the woods for a half hour and the mission was accomplished. Great job little man and Kudos to BigTerp for taking his brother out for his first… ...Read More

Fish Report – Big Stripers on Big Shad

by Leave a Comment

TinBoats member H20hawgs captured on camera the first fish landed on his SeaArk 2072 jet jon. Talk about catching Big Stripers on big shad, this is no joke. Video was captured using a Sony HDR-Az1 mini. Not a bad little camera in my opinion, not bad at all. Good job H20hawgs, I hope it’s the first of many more.

Lynx Precision System

by Leave a Comment

Knots and crimps are a nightmare. The fish of a lifetime could be lost because of failure on a knot or a crimp. I ran across the Lynx Precision System while surfing the net and it caught my eye. I have no idea how good it is, but from reading about it(very little) seems like a very cool system.  The Lynx Precision System eliminates the needs for knots and crimps? I don’t… ...Read More

Kiddie recalls fire extinguishers

by Leave a Comment

I just read that Kiddie recalled some plastic valve disposable fire extinguishers. Take a few minutes now and go check, this is important. In an event that hopefully never happens you want to make sure you are somewhat ready if it does. The failure of something like fire extinguisher is not an option in my opinion. You can read about the recall and the models affected… ...Read More

The Choice

by Leave a Comment

I went to the Great American Outdoor show in PA last weekend and while walking through the archery section I saw Ralph and Vicki from “Archers Choice”.  It is always cool when you meet people that you consider celebrities. I watch their show all the time on the outdoor channel. They were a class act and very friendly, exactly what I expected.… ...Read More
