I thought nets were required to be covered with a tarp if the boat was not actively fishing?
BUCK OF THE WEEK:I'm continuing to get a lot of deer on the 10 trail cams I have set up around the island. I have been using an antler trap for a couple of months. The bucks are showing up every night but they are not leaving any antlers at the trap. I'll keep trying. Here are videos of a big six point at the trap-

didn't know there was such a thing as an antler trap. i've heard of folks collecting sheds, though. :)
A lot of guys use antler traps here in all shapes and methods. I invented mine. It's a very safe one. The deer must try to get to the bait in the back of the trap. When his antlers are ready to fall, they will be knocked loose at the entrance to the trap. I have yet to see it work, though.

Remember how many draggers and scallopers used to tie up here in a storm? Almost all Eastern rigs too.One night I counted 27 boats tied up 3 and 4 deep at both sides of Straight Wharf,there was no more room so the 110 foot long scalloper "Zibet" was laying on a dredge off Brant Point.The waterfront was alive with fishermen doing gear work and visiting each other for 2 days.I miss them.Now its megayachts with underwater lights and drunken yacht owners.Where did all the real men and real boats go?
I agree, Richard. Our once vibrant and interesting waterfront has been taken over by junk shops, ugly yachts and drunken "sailors" on Memorial Day. I too remember the good old days down at the waterfront. They are gone. Long gone.
