THE IMPORTANCE OF BOAT INSURANCE

Embarking on the open water is an exhilarating experience, flled with the promise of adventure and relaxation. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a weekend cruiser, protecting your vessel with proper insurance is not just a choice—it’s a necessity. Explore the reasons why every boat owner should prioritize boat insurance for a worry-free voyage.

Unpredictable waters

The open water can be unpredictable, with unexpected storms, collisions, or other potential accidents. Boat insurance can give you fnancial protection if there is damage to your vessel, providing coverage for repairs or replacement.

Damage and injury

Accidents on the water can result in damage to other boats, docks, or even injuries to passengers. Boat insurance offers liability coverage, which can pay for damages or injuries you’re liable for while boating, up to specifed limits, and lawsuit costs if you’re sued. This includes damage you cause to another watercraft or if someone on or near your boat is injured and you’re found to be legally responsible.

Theft and vandalism

Unfortunately, boat theft and vandalism are realities that boat owners face. Boat insurance has comprehensive and collision coverage that can protect you against events outside of your control, including theft and vandalism.

Incurred medical payments

Accidents on the water may lead to injuries for you or your passengers. Boat insurance offers a range of optional medical payments coverage limits, helping to cover medical expenses if you are in an accident or someone is hurt on your boat, regardless of fault.

Peace of mind for fnancing

If you fnanced the purchase of your boat, most lenders require insurance coverage to protect their investment. Having boat insurance not only fulflls these requirements but also gives you peace of mind knowing that your fnancial interests are safeguarded.

Navigational fexibility

Some water municipalities and marinas may require proof of insurance for docking or accessing certain areas. Boat insurance allows you the fexibility to explore different destinations without worrying about entry restrictions.

Emergency towing and assistance

Progressive boat insurance can include optional Sign & Glide® On-Water Towing coverage. If your boat is disabled or breaks down on the water, Sign & Glide® pays for on-water towing, jump starts, soft un-groundings, and fuel delivery.

Wreckage removal

If your boat sinks, Progressive boat insurance will cover the cost of removing your boat from the water (if removal is legally required).

Investing in boat insurance is not just about protecting a valuable asset; it’s about safeguarding the memories, experiences, and joy that come with your on-water adventures. Don’t let unforeseen circumstances disrupt your journey—navigate with confdence, knowing that Progressive boat insurance has you covered. Ensure a smooth and worry-free voyage, because when it comes to your boat, peace of mind is the ultimate luxury.

MAHALO, RODNEY...

On December 11th at 3:00 p.m. the marine industry lost one of its kindest and most heartfelt supporters. A lifelong supporter of environmental awareness, the love of nature and teaching kids how to !sh, Rodney Smith was the earliest proponent of Florida’s groundbreaking net ban. He was the founder and publisher of the original Coastal Angler Magazine, creator and tireless volunteer of its Hook Kids On Fishing Program. Capt.

Cold Water Winter Fishing for Trout in the Smoky Mountains

When winter descends upon the Smoky Mountains, the streams and rivers transform into a serene and picturesque setting. For avid anglers, this season o ers a unique and rewarding opportunity to !sh for trout. Cold water !shing in the Smokies during winter demands preparation, knowledge, and patience, but the solitude and satisfaction of hooking a trout in these crisp conditions make it all worthwhile.

Trout are cold-water !sh, and they remain active during the winter, albeit at a slower pace. eir metabolism decreases as water temperatures drop, making them less aggressive and more selective in their feeding habits. During this season, trout tend to conserve energy by holding in deeper pools or near submerged structures where currents are slow and food is more accessible.

e Smoky Mountains, known for their pristine streams and diverse aquatic habitats, provide excellent winter !shing opportunities. e recent storm damage has not changed that, although access and former topographical structuring may be somewhat altered the !sh have adapted and so will anglers. Rainbow, brown, and brook trout can all be found in the cold, clear waters of this region, with brook trout being particularly prevalent in the higher elevations.

Winter !shing requires careful planning to ensure success and safety. e Smoky Mountains can get bitterly cold in winter. Dressing in layers, including moisturewicking base layers, insulating mid-layers, and waterproof outerwear, is crucial. Gloves and a hat are always a must: Nymphs, midges, and small streamers are excellent choices for winter trout !shing. Patterns like the Zebra Midge, Pheasant Tail, and Woolly Bugger o en prove e ective. Since aquatic insect activity is minimal in winter, imitating small and slowmoving prey is key.

Winter Fishing Tips

We often overlook Winter fishing for two reasons: we move on to winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding or ice climbing, and it’s too damn cold to stand in a river hoping your fingers won’t fall off. However, these two reasons are exactly why you should consider taking your rod with you in the winter months. Skiing and snowboarding destinations often have good mountain streams nearby that offer ideal fishing opportunities on the way to or from the ski hill. The cold will also deter other anglers meaning you'll get a chance to solo

fish your jam-packed summertime hole. Here are a few tips to help you overcome that cabin fever and get back on the river.

Buy decent waders! I reversed my feelings of impending doom and hypothermia by switching to good quality waders after floating the Yellowstone in March. Borrow from a friend or buy them for yourself. These are a non-negotiable item if you want to fish during the winter months.

Layer up. If you’re cold, it’s a layering issue. Pack

on the wool and quickdry synthetic fabrics. Remember to monitor your temperature, adding or removing layers so you don’t sweat or get too cold. Leave the cotton and down at home which will soak up water and never dry.

Ditch the felt. Avoid your felt boot bottoms amassing snow by switching to spikes or rubber soled boots.

Light a fire. Set up a base camp and light a fire (where permitted) or a propane fueled furnace; giving you a space to warm up and relax during those extremely cold and snowy days.

Multiple gloves. Bring multiple pairs of gloves and fingerless gloves to alleviate inevitability soaked, wet fingers.

Pinch your barbs. Make sure to pinch your barbs in advance if you plan on

catching and releasing your fish. You'll spend less time wrestling a hook out of a fish’s mouth and thereby risk less hand exposure to the wet and cold. Using forceps or a Ketchum Release tool often means you don't have to remove your gloves or touch the fish at all.

De-ice your guides. Finally, for that pesky problem of ice on your guides pick up a container of Loon Outdoors Stanley’s Ice Off Paste or swing by your kitchen and grab some cooking spray. Apply when your rod and line is still dry for maximum effect. These tips plus an unwavering desire to fish regardless of the weather will help you stay out longer. Slow moving fish and limited food sources make winter fishing a great option for anyone willing to embrace the chill. Tight lines and see you on the water!

Cold Water Tactics on Lake Champlain Kicking off the winter season in South Hero, Vermont

It could be argued that the best part of going fishing is getting away from it all, and traveling to northern Vermont, about 20 miles from the Canadian border, certainly qualifies.

It was winter when I ventured

up to the island of South Hero, Vermont, population 1,696. Smack dab in the middle of Lake Champlain, South Hero delivers incredible scenery and tons of outdoor activities, and this area of the lake itself is renowned for smallmouth fishing. Plus, the

winter is a great time to head up there because the bass are really putting on the feedbag before the hard ice cover.

Of course, the cold weather isn’t for the faint of heart, Dress appropriately and have FUN!

When we arrived at The Anchorage, we were assigned a comfortable cedar cabin.

The NEW owners’ David and Melissa Morrissette have done a nice job with upkeep and renovations. Nestled inside Paradise Bay, The Anchorage, with a histo-

ry dating back to 1959, is made up of 12 rental cabins, plus a main lodge, community living area and game room. They also have two rental boats available, including a 16-foot V-hull and an 18-foot pontoon boat. But the best part is the awesome angling you can do on the lake: there are about 80 species of fish, including those smallies we were after. Lake Champlain is often mentioned as one of the TOP 5 lakes in the country. When we ventured out in the morning it was

a not-too-frigid 33 degrees, with an expected high of 38. Getting right down to business, we employed cold water tactics: an assortment of blade baits from SteelShad lures, then half ounce jig heads with Keitech Swim Jigs, and a dropshot setup with the Reins Bubbling Shaker. Part of what inspired this setup was seeing on social media how Connecticut’s Bass Elite angler Paul Mueller is a big fan of it and is quite successful.

With water temps in the low 40s, we fished very slowly, but we did pretty well for ourselves. I can’t say that any one bait or setup worked better than the others, but I can say we hauled 22 bronze beauties over the deck. Another reason I believe we did well was using Yo-Zuri 6 lb. co-polymer line, which is really strong and invisible in the crystal clear water.

Champlain this time of year. The views and the wildlife are fantastic, and during the winter you’re out there practically by yourself.

Yup, South Hero, Vermont is the definition of getting away from it all. So if you’re looking for an icy adventure up

north with plenty of smallies, lakeside cabins and generous hospitality, check out The Anchorage on Lake Champlain. When the lake freezes over just drill holes. Until then, God Bless and Go Fish!

As any reader of my column or viewer of my YouTube channel knows, I enjoy every single fishing outing that I’m lucky enough to go on, and the places where I get to stay. But there’s something special about Lake

Being prepared for ice fishing is essential because…safety on the ice is no accident!

Unfortunately at some point you hear of the unthinkable of someone falling through the ice. The event most times becomes a search and recovery rather than a search and rescue. Fortunately this tragic story can for the most part be avoided but of coarse there are always accidents. A few tips will hopefully help keep everyone more safe and secure on hard water. As winter approaches, everyone is always itching to get out and wet a line with much enthusiasm and determination. As ice season comes into fold, the shoreline is first to freeze and therefore first to be fished. I always recom-

Ice Fishing Safety and Equipment

mend to folks to check with local tackle shops and fellow fishermen if not familiar with the ice to be fished. Another option is to rely on a professional ice-fishing guide, as they will have the proper safety equipment, familiarity and know-how.

Checking the Ice is critical… You are about to step out onto the ice but you see no signs of previous activity, now what? The only way to check the ice is to make test holes with your auger or ice pick. Keep in mind that the shoreline typically freezes first on a lake or pond. So ice can get thinner as you venture away from shore. Study the ice color, clarity and conditions.

Note* - White or snow

ice is about half as strong as new clear ice. Also, river ice is approximately 15% less strong as new clear ice.

Tag Line Ice Fishing is not a new idea but I have adopted the idea in order to access ice where ice thickness can vary. If you are out on the first ice of the season and not sure of springs or ice thickness, then here is a technique that may help you stay safe. Working from shore you can affix a safety line to your fall gear or harness. Having a line attached to a permanent fixture on shore, you can go out and run your trap line. This way you have a safety measure in place to pull yourself out and or someone can help you out safely. This becomes even more important when fishing waters with current.

Every Maine winter can unarguably be considered unique. The weather has become more and more unpredictable and every year ice conditions can vary drastically. Typically February and March are the two best months for fishing

large glacial lakes. Why? The northern lakes of Maine are so expansive that winds stubbornly keep ice from forming resulting in a late freeze up. There certainly other factors such as springs, river current, and snow cover and of coarse the obvious, air temperatures. My personal favorite time of year to ice fish has always been March due to the warmer sunny days and the safety of thickness of ice that has been forming all winter long. Nothing beats being able to fish on a calm, cloudy, mild March day! Those perfect days are far in between, but when we have them, they hold forever in our minds as we dream upon another year of ice fishing!

THE NEW YEAR BRINGS NEW OPPORTUNITY

As winter deepens, cooler waters push more !sh o the beaches and toward the warmer edges of the Gulf Stream. With grouper and snapper now o -limits due to regulations, it’s time to shi our focus to productive species still on the table—trigger!sh, vermilion snapper (beeliners), and seabass. For those looking to venture even deeper, deepdropping remains an exciting option.

e December full moon o en marks a turning point in !shing. Grouper and speckled trout seasons wind down, leaving anglers to adapt to what the regulatory environment allows. Fortunately, the stacks of triggers, beeliners, and pelagics in deeper waters o er excellent opportunities. Start your search around the 150-foot mark and use your !sh!nder to locate promising spots.

Tools of the Trade

For precision !shing, modern tools like spot-lock trolling motors—such as the Rhodan or Minn Kota—are game changers. ese motors allow you to hover directly over schools of !sh with ease. However, they can be limited when deploying a kite, as the wind necessary for kite !shing can drain trolling motor batteries quickly. at’s

Yes, anchoring may feel like a step back for those spoiled by spot-lock motors, but it’s a reliable method for staying on productive marks without straining batteries. Once anchored, consider adding a kite to your !shing arsenal. Kites are particularly e ective for enticing leader-shy species like yellow!n tuna and wahoo. When properly deployed, they minimize visible leader material in the water, o en resulting in immediate strikes.

Teamwork and Preparation

Successful kite !shing requires teamwork. Assign one crew member to manage the kite and bait while others focus on !lling the cooler with trigger!sh and snapper. Proper setup is essential.

Junior Angler Breaks World Record with Massive Payara

At just six years old, Nathan “Bibil” Barreto is already making waves in the angling world! On July 8, 2024, while !shing Brazil’s iconic Juruena River, Nathan landed an incredible 11.79-kg (26-lb) payara. is catch shattered the IGFA Men’s Smallfry World Record for the species.

Nathan hooked the record-setting payara using cut bait, showcasing his growing skills as an angler. A er verifying the weight on a certi!ed scale, he ensured the safe release of this magni!cent !sh. Nathan’s actions not only highlighted his talent but also demonstrated that conservation is a value no angler is too young to embrace.

What Are Smallfry World Records?

e International Game Fish Association (IGFA) has established guidelines for Smallfry World Records to encourage young anglers. Here’s what you need to know:

• Species: Records are maintained for the heaviest !sh of any eligible species.

• Age: Categories exist for male and female anglers aged 10 years and under.

• Weight: Fish do not need to be weighed on land, as long as the weight is veri!ed appropriately.

• L ine Class: Records are recognized for all line and tippet classes covered under IGFA rules.

• Other Rules: All IGFA International Angling Rules apply, except for the standard weighing requirement.

Inspiring the Next Generation

Braid vs. Monofilament Fishing Line: Which Is Best?

Choosing the right !shing line is crucial for success on the water. Two popular options— braided and mono!lament lines—o er distinct advantages, and your choice o en depends on your !shing style, target species, and conditions. Let’s compare their strengths and weaknesses to help you decide.

Braided line stands out for its high strength-todiameter ratio. Its thin pro!le allows for less drag and greater line capacity on reels, making it ideal for deep-water !shing. For instance, a 30-pound braid can match the diameter of an 8-pound mono!lament. Mono!lament, while thicker, provides added durability and is o en preferred in situations requiring extra shock absorption, such as battling !sh with sudden, strong runs.

Braid has minimal stretch, giving it superior sensitivity. is makes it perfect for techniques like jigging or bottom !shing, where detecting subtle bites is crucial. It also enhances hook-setting power. On the other hand, mono!lament’s stretch acts as a cushion during hard strikes, reducing the risk of breakage.

Mono!lament generally o ers better abrasion resistance, making it a top choice in areas with rocks or heavy cover. However, it is prone to UV damage over time, which can weaken the line.

Braid is more resistant to UV exposure but can fray easily when rubbed against rough surfaces.

Braided line’s thin diameter and lack of stretch give it an edge for long-distance casting, especially in open water. However, mono!lament’s low visibility underwater makes it advantageous for targeting skittish !sh in clear water. To counter braid’s visibility, many anglers use a uorocarbon leader.

e choice between braid and mono depends on your needs. Braid excels in strength, sensitivity, and casting, while mono shines in shock absorption, abrasion resistance, and stealth. Many anglers carry both to adapt to various scenarios or use a braid mainline with a mono or uorocarbon leader for versatility.

Ultimately, knowing when to use each type can make all the di erence in your !shing success.
