Capt Andy joins up with New England shark
authority Capt Bill Brown of
Billfish Charters
(860 741-3301) and hook expert Jeff Pierce from Mustad. The crew
spends the day illustrating all the fine points of shark fishing in the
Northeast. Bill covers baits and rigging, while Jeff covers hooks
and attractants. Of course, the sharks eventually show up and make
for plenty of action including a solid Mako and a blue shark estimated at
over 300lbs! The techniques and tackle in this show can be used by
anyone who dares to chase these fearsome creatures. If you have questions about any of the
equipment used during the show, please contact us
or send us a message.

| The boat used was a
2895CC Triton
powered by twin 250hp Mercury Verados. This boat is the real deal.
With a deep-v hull and sharp entry, the 2895 will knife through big seas
that would leave most boats back at the dock. The deck layout
makes it the perfect platform for both inshore and offshore,
plugging, trolling, or fishing your favorite hot spot at anchor.

| Andy & Rich and the entire
crew stayed at the
Island Home (401-466-5944).
This is a beautiful restored Victorian Bed & Breakfast. The inn is
conveniently located between the village of Old Harbor and the Great Salt
Pond, with panoramic views of the harbor, ocean and surrounding countryside.
The warm & comfortable setting, with inviting rooms, cozy nooks and
sprawling lawns make the inn ideal for winding down after a day of fishing.
It is also perfect for a family getaway, and only a short walk to town,
beaches and marinas. |

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.
