                                It’s Time to Winterize Your Boat!

 

For most boaters in New England, the time has come or has recently passed to pull your boat out of the water and winterize it for the winter.

Our go to lure is the Deadly Dick lure which is a metal jig that imitates sand eels and can be casted or vertically jigged. This lure catches every species of fish we have. In ......

Benefits of Synthetic Lubrication to the Recreational, Charter & Commercial Fishing Industry

The Origin of Synthetic Oils .

Research into alternatives to petroleum oil began long before Nazi Germany invaded Poland in 1933. But not until WWII choked off Germany’s crude oil supply and dramatically revealed petroleum oil’s failings on the front lines did a clear incentive to develop synthetic oil emerge.
