Captain Henry Feeney joins Andy and Rich for the final outing of the season.  The guys travel out of Sheepshead Bay, NY to 17 Fathoms to fish in over 100ft of water for some of the biggest blackfish ever seen on camera including a 14lb monster and several 8-10lb fish.  The bite never stops and only the rough seas force them to call it a day.  If you have questions about any of the equipment used during the show, please contact us or  send us a message
The rod and reel combo seen on the show featured a Shimano Torium 20 reel on a Tallus conventional rod  (model TLC-70MHA).  This is a very versatile conventional outfit and is perfect for nearly all northeast live lining and chunking applications.

We recommend a reel loaded with 50lb Berkley Spiderwire which is attached to a 3ft length of 50lb Yo-Zuri Disappearing Pink Fluorocarbon leader using a 130lb SPRO Power Swivel.

The rig is completed with two 5/0 Mustad Ultrapoint Beak Bait style hooks on 80lb Yo-Zuri Disappearing Pink Fluorocarbon 8in leaders tied just above and 8oz bank sinker (also known as a "snafu" rig).  Both hooks are inserted into a half white (calico) crab bait. 

All the tackle used on Northeast Angling is stored in Ameripack tackle systems.  The Backpack Tackle system is used to get the tackle to the fish!  All the rods and reels are transported using the Rod Pods and the Reel Locker.  They insure that everything makes it to the shoot in perfect condition.  Their versatile Fly Boxes are also used for bucktails and rigs.

The raging current made the net choice especially critical.  A Frabill Powercatch net with it's extendable handle was used and ensured that none of the fish were lost at boat-side.  This is a a great net that stores easily and all you have to do is slide, lock and load and it is ready to go!
The boat used was a 2486CC Triton powered by twin 150hp Mercury Optimax engines.  This boat is one tough customer. With a deep-v hull and sharp entry the 2486 can handle almost anything the northeast can dish out.  The deck layout makes it the perfect platform for both inshore and offshore, plugging, trolling, or fishing your favorite hot spot at anchor.  Click here to learn more about this incredible boat or click here to learn about the gear and Raymarine electronics on this boat.
LoadRite supplied the tandem axel roller trailed used to haul the boat.  This trailer made launching and recovery a breeze and provided a real sense of security on the road.  Click here to locate the LoadRite dealer nearest to you.
The Automatic Adjusting Marker Buoy used during the show was provided by Skimmer Outdoors.  This is a reliable, easy to use marker that remains in place after setting. Traditional markers used a fixed sinker line which might either be too short to reach the bottom or might become entangled in the propeller. The Automatic Adjusting Marker Buoy automatically releases the necessary line for the depth and also avoids line entanglement. The buoy is made of durable nylon, Styrofoam and stainless steel for long life.  (Click on the buoy to enlarge)  Available now at Skimmer Outdoors!
Capt Andy and Rich wear polarized sunglasses supplied by Azores Eyewear.  Finally someone has come out with a premium sunglass line at a reasonable price (less than $80).  The polarized lenses eliminate glare and allows anglers to spend long hours on the water without having to worry about headaches and eyestrain.  All models have 100% UVA and UVB protection.  Never settle for anything else.  No angler should be without these  glasses.
