2020 Holiday Gift Guide for Boaters There are plenty of special boating gifts that your favorite loved one would surely appreciate unwrapping this holiday season.

But, wouldn’t they be even more excited to open up a gift that makes boating itself better? Of course they would. Unfortunately, holiday shopping in 2020 is not like any holiday shopping season of the recent past.

This year you’re going to need to generate some new ideas and develop that goodie list in a virtual format.

We’ve sorted through the potential presents that can make a boater’s time out on the water even more awesome than it already is, and one or more of these picks is sure to put a smile on the face of your most beloved boater.

As you try to figure out how to make this season a special one, be sure to consider these top 10 gifts for boaters.

1. A Boat Lift Keeping your boat on a lift doesn’t just eliminate the need for bottom paint and mooring lines, it also gives you peace of mind. Sitting high and dry above the water that boat is significantly safer than it would be in a wet slip, yet launching and pulling it is far easier than it would be with a trailer. And boat lifts aren’t just for private dock owners.

Many marinas allow their customers to put lifts in their slips (though there’s usually a long-term commitment involved and the marina may retain ownership of the lift afterwards).

If you’re not sure what sort of lift would be right for your rig check out our guide on Choosing the Right Type of Boat Lift, and remember that some types (intended mostly for smaller boats), like the ConnectA-Dock Connect-A-Ports and EZ Docks allow you to drive the boat right out of the water

and don’t require electricity, cables, or other complex components.

2. Boat Electronics Would navigation be made easier with a new MFD? Maybe a gift that would help when hunting for fish would be in order?

Or, perhaps there’s been a communications breakdown and a new VHF radio would be the best gift?

Marine electronics are constantly evolving, so upgrading a system that’s more than a few years old is always a good idea.

Once you narrow it down to the best bet, you can start considering individual brands and units.

3. Fishing Rods and Reels If you need a gift for an angler, this one’s a no-brainer—there’s not a fisher-person alive who doesn’t love getting new rods and reels. Whether the angler you’re shopping for is into freshwater fishing or they’re a dedicated saltwater fishing aficionado, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from at all different price-points.

4. Emergency Signaling Devices There’s no better way to tell a boater you love them than to get them safetyadding gear like an emergency signaling device. You have several options these days, ranging from electronic flares to satellite text messengers to EPIRBs. These items all share one thing in common: they add a huge safety margin, each and every time the boat leaves the dock. Added bonus: some emergency signaling devices, like Garmin’s in Reach satellite messenger, also allow you to send regular text messages via satellite so you can stay in touch even when you’re far from land.

5. Tow-Toys In the just-plain-fun department, a new tow-toy could be just the nautical knickknack you need. We intentionally didn’t specify between wakeboards, water skis, and inflatables, because different people enjoy different tow-sports. But one nifty new option is to give the gift of a Solo SF 150, a sort of mini-boat you control with buttons on the tow handle so you can go water skiing or wakeboarding alone.

Whatever type of watersports the person you’re shopping for may favor, remember that each different board or tube offers different riding and performance characteristics. So even if there’s already one board aboard, adding another into the mix can change the dynamics of the experience for your watersports loving gift unwrapper.

6. A Boat Grill The newest, biggest, most expensive boats have gas grills built right in, but the vast majority of the bowriders, center consoles, and pontoon boats out there can’t make that boast.

If your family enjoys cooking out, and what family doesn’t?, then getting a grill for the boat could be an awesome way to enhance those long days out on the water.

recognition in the Mechanical Systems category in this year’s IBEX Innovations Awards.

8. Safety Harnesses Sailboat owners have their own set of unique needs, and something they may want which you wouldn’t find aboard powerboats are harnesses. Particularly if your special sailor is into racing and he or she likes to push the limits, a strong, light, comfortable harness is a critical piece of safety gear and makes for a gift that’s sure to be appreciated.

9. Boat Trailer Guide-On Bunks Does the trailer-boater you treasure need to take three or four attempts to get his or her boat lined up properly on the trailer?

If so, they’re sure to go gaga over a set of guide-on trailer bunks. There vertical posts will help the boat self-center, directing the

bow into the proper position every time as the boat goes onto the trailer.

10. Fishing Rod Holders It’s a fact: anglers love rod holders on their boat. And no matter how many they may have, more is always better. One you’ll certainly want to consider is the Rupp Marine Boltless Rod Holder, another 2020 IBEX Innovations Award winner. So find the flush-mounts, rail-mounts, or rocket launchers that will fit your adored angler’s boat and start wrapping.

Bonus Gift: A Brand New Boat You say you’ve checked out all these options and they just aren’t good enough?

You want to give your loved on the ultimate gift? Well then, there can be no further debate. Head right on over to our Boat Finder tool, pick out the perfect pleasurecraft, and get them a brand new boat!

7. A Bilge Pump A bilge pump might seem like an odd gift item, but let’s get real—few items are more important on any boat. And since many models are built with just one bilge pump, adding a back-up is always a good idea.

There are plenty of different pumps to choose from, but one you’ll certainly want to take a peek at is Attwood’s new Sahara Mk2, which eliminates air-lock and won

clocks in with an overall length of 32’4” (9.86 meters) and boasts CE Certifications for Category B (offshore), C (coastal), and D (inland/sheltered) – not many boats of this size carry equivalent certifications.

There is no doubt the Aquila 32 Sport will be a fantastic boat to enhance your lifestyle and love for the water. We look forward to seeing the versatile Aquila 32 Sport in both coastal and inland lakes and waterways.

BioBag® - Compostable Bags

B

ioBag® is a world leader in providing bags and films for the collection of organic waste for the purpose of composting. Our mission is to keep organic waste from ever entering a landfill. Unlike regular plastic bags, BioBags are made from a resin derived from plants, vegetable oils and compostable polymers and can be consumed by micro-organisms that live in our soils. Because of this, our BioBags can be readily composted along with organic waste at municipal composting facilities.

BioBag isn’t a large petroleumbased plastic bag company that now conveniently dabbles in the new world of compostable bags. We are, instead, a small company of dedicated employees, who are fully committed to ONLY producing certified compostable bags and films. It’s All We Do!

BioBag Americas is a fully-owned subsidiary of BioBag International (Norway) with headquarters in Dunedin, Florida. BioBag Americas was originally established in 2002 when BioGroupUSA secured the sales and marketing rights for the United States from BioBag International. The founder of BioGroupUSA, Dave Williams, and his partner, entrepreneur Terry Phillips believed strongly that certified compostable bags and films would soon become a necessary and viable part of solving food waste separation issues as “Zero Waste” initiatives expanded across the country.

high quality, certified compostable bags with consumers and businesses across the country.

We work closely with community governments to establish food waste separation programs and help educate consumers on the benefits of keeping food waste and other compostable items from entering landfills. BioBags play an important part in the collection of organic waste for composting. Simply said, “We Get It!!”

Today, BioBag is the leading retail brand of compostable bags in the country! (SPINS/ IRI). More consumers use BioBags than all of our competitors combined. We are proud that “You Get It,” too!!!

To learn more about BioBag International’s history and best practices, please visit www.biobagworld.com

In 2011, BioGroupUSA changed its name to BioBag Americas, as the business was expanded to South America and Canada.

Over the years, the BioBag brand name has become synonymous with

MARINE ENVIRONMENT AND ALCOHOL CLEARWATER - Most people are not aware of the very real, life threatening dangers associated with consuming alcohol and boating. Add boating stressors to those usual factors resulting from drinking alcohol, and a truly perilous condition is present. Drinking alcohol produces certain physiological responses that directly affect safety and well-being. Judgement and skills deteriorate, affecting peripheral vision, balance, and ability to process information. Physical performance and reaction time are reduced. Alcohol reduces depth perception, night vision, focus, and the ability to distinguish colors, especially red and green. Alcohol consumption can result in inner ear disturbance, which can make it impossible for a person suddenly immersed in water to distinguish up from down. Alcohol creates a sense of warmth and may prevent a person in cold water from getting out before hypothermia sets in. The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary offers the acclaimed boating safety course, About Boating Safely. Classes begin the second weekend of every month. Please contact Leslie Long, Clearwater 11-1 Flotilla Commander at (727) 469-8895, auxboatingclass@gmail.com SARASOTA FLOTILLA 82 OF THE USCG AUXILIARY Florida law requires that any person born on or after Jan. 1, 1988, may not operate a vessel powered by a motor of 10 horsepower or greater unless such person has in his or her possession, aboard the vessel, photographic identification, a Florida boater safety identification card (or any other state’s boating card), and the registration for their vessel.

Captain’sCorner with Captain Dylan Hubbard InshoreSnook action is going well around the bay area right now especially in the estuary areas as many of the fish start to move back in the bay as the water cools.

You can find them active on the grass flats, mangrove shorelines and starting to see them at the mouths of the creeks and rivers. Closer to the mouth of the bay we are still seeing some very late season fish along the beaches during the day too, but numbers are much lower than the summertime peak. The passes are still holding some fish too, at night on the incoming tide seems to be the peak time lately. This week the white plastic paddle tail and flairhawk style jigs were the favorite around the passes at night.

During the day on the beaches, flats and shorelines they are love the live white bait, live shrimp or swim baits along with the soft plastic paddle tails.

Redfish action is steady throughout the area as well. Cut bait has been king for these guys, but were seeing many bite on the slow moving soft plastics on the bottom from DOA shrimp to paddle tails. Live shrimp with minimal weight will also work for the redfish bite. They are moving into the canals lately and still plenty of fish out on the flats in the passes and along the mangroves. This time of year, you can still find the big schools of feeding reds from time to time on the flats.

Trout action has picked up nicely as of late and will continue to improve with cooling temps. We are seeing

these guys around those grass flat areas where there’s a nice roll, drop off, pothole, or some sort of ambush spot they can hang to feed actively on all the passing bait. They are loving live shrimp or white bait but a variety of soft plastics work but I suggest the artificial shrimp like the DOA shrimp. We are seeing these guys at night around the docks and bridge lights too.

Sheepshead action is really heating up as the waters continue to cool. The best places to find them are around the bridges, docks, piers and other structures. However, you can find them on the oyster bars too and when you find an oyster bar, mangroves and a bridge or dock close by you have found your sheepshead honey hole! They will eat a variety of small crabs from mud crabs to fiddler crabs and even mangrove crabs.

They love cut oysters or clams. You can use barnacles even or small pieces of shrimp. Small hooks and light tackle and minimal weight if any at all is preferrable to target these great eating and fun fighting fish.

Mackerel action is going well around the beaches, mouth of the bay and passes. We are seeing some of these fish even travel up in the bay around the deepest edges of the flats and hanging around the bridges busting bait schools. There are a few kingfish mixed in at the mouth of the bay too so you never know what you may hook up

with Captain Kyle Messier Just another day of fishing with Ed! In the world of guided fishing there is NO such thing as a for sure bet when you’re out on the water, which is why I refer to my job and fishing in general as one big game. As we all know the only thing that’s consistent with fishing is change.

One day the wind is up, the next day it’s down. One day it’s sunny, the next day it’s cloudy. One day its warm, the next day its cold (if its not 75° in Florida it’s cold). It’s the ever-changing game of finding and feeding fish that gets into your blood and makes you want more torcher.

Since the start of October I’ve had the pleasure of fishing weekly with an incredible angler from Wyoming named Ed Opler. To say fishing is in this 87 year old mans blood is an understatement.

His eyesight for spotting fish is incredibly sharp for his age, his casting is nearly flawless and he still has the balance of cat on the casting platform (he would laugh if he heard me say that). Needless to say he’s one hell of a fishermen and it has been a pleasure to guide him over the last couple of months in the wind, cold, heat, and snow. Ok, maybe we haven’t fished in the snow yet but what we have fished in is wind, wind, and more wind. I honestly can’t recall a 30 day stretch where I’ve fished more days in windy conditions than not in my guiding career. Do you think that fazed Ed? Not a chance!!

This man is not going to miss a day of fishing no

matter what the weather guessers say.

During our first couple of outings we challenged ourselves by trying to land a 3 fish slam all in the same day. Usually this time of year our three fish slam consists of landing a Redfish, Speckled Trout, and Snook all on fly within the same day. This challenging task usually can be accomplished when the conditions are ideal but as tough as the wind has been in recent weeks we found the Trout and Snook to be the hardest parts of the trifecta. With the wind being the toughest hurdle to overcome during our first few days of fishing both Ed and I set our sites on fishing the backcountry for what usually is the most difficult portion of the slam, the Redfish.

Redfish in general are scavengers by nature and they ideally do not like swimming outside of their ambush zones to chase baits or fly’s which is why targeting them on fly can be such a task. Relatively precise casts are ideal but the real challenge usually is choosing the right fly that excites their appetite. This time of year due to the pristine water clarity flies that feature dull colored materials that

West Central Florida Southwest Coast with out there. They are holding around the artificial reefs and rock piles at the mouth of bay as well. The best time to target the mackerel from shore would be in the earlier morning from around sunrise to mid-morning when water is at the clearest.

Flounder are starting to pick up still, nothing wild yet but they will get better and better as the waters continue to cool. Look for them on the bottom in the sandy areas adjacent to the flats, structures or dock lines. They hang right on the bottom and love live shrimp or small bait fish to venture too close to their sandy hideouts.

Tripletail are biting well around the crab buoys along the shoreline. Great time to get out there and do some sight fishing.

You may even run across the occasional cobia while cruising the buoys so be ready for him too! The tripletail love the live shrimp or even artificial shrimp tossed close to their buoy hide out. You can also find them on floating debris, channel markers, and sometimes even dock lines. We found a big triple tail this past week hiding under a coconut just off the beaches.

West Central Florida Captain Dylan Hubbard (727)393-1947 www.hubbardsmarina.com facebook.com/hubbardsmarina

West Florida move or pulse when not being stripped are ideal. Both Ed and I each have our favorites patterns but we have found the most success using tan and white small EP baitfish patterns as well as Redfish Sliders tied on a size 6 hook. Smaller flies have worked very well for us primarily because of the lack of splash once the fly enters the water. In clear shallow water the number one priority is a stealth approach with a soft entrance into the water.

Ed’s casts are a work of art for the most part. With over 60 years of practice he’s mastered the ability to manipulate a fly line in order to make short quick casts and even the most challenging of long casts. Tailing fish, cruising fish, and fish hidden so far back in the mangroves have all become part of his quiver in recent weeks and I for one will be looking forward to pushing him around into the New Year to see what other tricks he has up his sleeve. #YOURNEVERTOOLDTOCAST

Captain’sCorner with Captain Tom Van Horn Indian River Lagoon Coastal Fishing Forecast, December 2020 FRESHWATER FISHING American Shad and Crappie Despite high water levels on the St Johns River system good numbers of speckled perch (black crappie) are showing up in the upper St Johns River, and the big lakes of Monroe, Jessup and Harney. Fish structure or slow troll Road Runner jigs or live minnows near the bottom. Also, look for the American shad to begin showing up near the end of the month on their winter spawning run.

American shad are an incredible species to catch on light tackle and fly, and if you have never experienced this fishery, you should book a day with me and learn how it is done.

American Shad fishing is the closes Floridian’s get to the salmon runs of the north and we are catching them during the winter when the northern rives are frozen over.

Nearshore and Inlets Near-shore and in the inlets, large redfish were concentrated outside Ponce, Port Canaveral and Sebastian Inlets last month, and they should remain steady through December. At both Ponce and Sebastian, look for redfish chasing bait on the surface during periods of slack tide, or feeding along the bottom during periods of falling tidal flow. At Port Canaveral, work the bottom in deeper water just outside the buoy line along the channel ledges and look for concentrations of Atlantic menhaden (pogies) and muddy water spots in 15 to 30 feet of depth. These breeder size redfish will hit artificial baits, but live pinfish, pigfish, pogies and finger mullet are more productive. Remember, these are oversized reds, so step up the size of your tackle and handle and release them with extreme care.

Bluefish and Spanish Mackerel Schools of bluefish and Spanish mackerel have been feeding on glass minnows (bay anchovies) along the beaches and outside the Inlets. When targeting these species watch for bird activity and work small jigs or spoons fast to avoid cut offs. A small trace of wire can be added ahead of your bait to reduce cut offs, but in some cases the keen vision of the toothy mackerel will reduce the number of strikes. Also, if you see pelicans diving on bait and then holding their bills down in the water to strain the water from the smaller baitfish before swallowing, you are in the right spot.

Flounder The Flounder run is on with good catches being reported from both Port Canaveral and Sebastian. Anglers utilizing either jigs, live finger mullet or mud minnows fished on the bottom are experiencing the best results. My favorite technique is to slow drift the Inlet passes, bouncing DOA jigs combined with a 3″ DOA CAL Shad Tail on the bottom. This tactic allows you to cover more ground, and once you have located a hot spot, you can anchor your boat and concentrate on the area.

Tarpon and Kingfish Further off the beach, tarpon and

with Captain David Ide SAILFISH ACTION ONLY GETS BETTER We’ve started to experience a few more cold fronts as November wound down. For us, a “cold front” is when the mercury dips below 60 degrees – and this has pushed the schools of Sailfish down our way. Our clients have been putting up big numbers of Sailfish catches and releases as our Fleet focuses almost exclusively on fishing live baits underneath our fishing kites.

The sailfish action will only get better as we make our way through December and January.

Kite-fishing is a truly amazing and engaging experience as you get to see the Sailfish AS THEY EAT the bait. We can fish up to three (3) live baits per kite, with at least two (2) kites up at any one time. We’re fishing between 80 and 200 feet of water.

We’ve also had luck shallower than 80 feet as we watch Sailfish “free jumping” in the midst of Ballyhoo schools up on the reef.

“Where Caring is the Key”

Snook Snook fishing will remain steady in the surf and inlets, with Sebastian Inlet proving to be the most productive location. It is best to target inlet snook at night by drifting live pigfish and pinfish through the channel, or fishing bucktail jigs or large swimming plugs from the rocks and catwalks. This type of fishing can be quite challenging due to the number of anglers competing for the same fish and impatient and discourteous anglers, so please pay attention, be courteous, stay safe and enjoy the rewards.

THE MOON YIELDS GREAT WAHOO ACTION The Fall/Winter moon phases are leading to a steady Wahoo bite!

One of the fastest fish in the sea, Wahoos can melt drags and break hearts if you’re not ready for them.

Fortunately, the Lady Pamela Sportfishing Team is ready, willing and able to tame these shiny, striped bait burglars. The November Wahoos have been crushing our strip baits trolled below the surface on planers along with

www.TheMariner.com

Central Florida kingfish can be found shadowing bait pods outside the Inlets. Either slow troll live baits on steel stinger rigs, or try dropping live baits into schools of bait in deeper water. This bite should continue if water temperatures remain above 74 degrees.

Tripletail and Cobia December is also the month when tripletail begins to show up on the Port Canaveral buoy line, and as the water cools the bite should improve. When water temperatures drop below 70 degrees, look for cobia on weedlines, near-shore wrecks, buoys, and other structure. Once the water temperatures drop below 68 degrees, target cobia on the deeper wrecks and hard bottom where the water is a bit warmer.

Black Drum, Redfish and Sea Trout On the Lagoons, water level is very high and the water is dirty. With this said, focus your efforts on shoreline and backwater areas as sight fishing is incredibly challenging. Also concentrate your efforts in areas of baitfish and fish with shrimp and crab imitation sort plastics or live shrimp.

In closing, 2020 has been an exceedingly difficult and challenging year on many levels, but if you are reading this forecast you have survived to fish another day. For me, I am at a crossroad in my life where spending time with friends and family has become a priority so I am not sure where 2021 will take me. I’m not one to dwell on the past, but instead focus on the future. With this said, value your time on the water with family and friends and have a safe and enjoyable holiday.

Marathon/Florida Keys Southeast Coast

Islanders/ballyhoo combinations in both the blue/white and red/black colors.

We continue to find good numbers of Wahoo in between 250 and 800 feet of water. We’ve also hooked a few Wahoo slow trolling live bullet Bonitos over the wrecks for Barracudas and Black Grouper.

BIG KINGFISH TRYING TO STEAL THE SPOTLIGHT King Mackerel (‘Kingfish”) have been terrorizing the reefs -and our baits – up on the reef. Like Sailfish, Kingfish absolutely love to crush a live bait suspended beneath our kites. Kingfish have teeth that are more like surgical scalpels and they fight hard, which is why we call them “smokers” – they will smoke your drag on scorching runs once they’re hooked. We have to fish wire leaders to make sure we don’t miss these acrobatic bites.

When they’re not crushing our live baits under the kite or slow-trolled, Kingfish have also been responding to our strip baits trolled below the surface on planers along with as Islanders with ballyhoo in both the blue/white and red/black color combinations.

We’ve been finding the Kingfish in between 70 and 150 feet of water.

BARRACUDAS ARE SHREDDING OUR BAITS The Barracudas have been ferocious on the reefs and we’re catching some big and fearsome ‘Cudas.

We’re also getting shots at Hammerheads and Tiger Sharks. You had better “eat your Wheaties” because these sea monsters don’t give up when hooked.

THE TARPON ARE STILL IN TOWN The Mullet Run is over but the Tarpon are still active…and hungry. Give us a call to get an amazing workout and witness one of the most acrobatic saltwater species in the world!

DRIFT FISHING REPORT: KINGS, CUDAS AND PLENTY OF SNAPPERS On the Lois Ann, our daily trips – 3 each day – are producing Kingfish, Tuna, Bonito, Barracuda, Amberjack, Sailfish and a host of Snapper and Grouper. Our nighttime trips have been producing huge numbers of Yellowtail Snappers. Keep in mind that the Lois Ann is limited to a certain number of anglers per trip due to CDC guidelines.

This is great news for YOU as you have plenty of room to fish multiple lines! Book a trip NOW to get in on this amazing action after the sun goes down.

Since the start of October I’ve had the pleasure of fishing weekly with an incredible angler from Wyoming named Ed Opler. Ed’s casts are a work of art for the most part.

With over 60 years of practice he’s mastered the ability to manipulate a fly line in order to make short quick casts and even the most challenging of long casts. Captain Kyle Messier. (352) 634-4002, kylemessier@ yahoo.com, www.crystalriverfishing.com
