    We just started our season this past weekend despite the political announcements of more shutdowns. The government did a study last year and found that there was no spread of covid on fishing boats so we are going forward with the season as planned. It seems like most people wanting an outdoor...

    I've fished Ukee a fair amount, but I'm still learning. I only have a 19 foot boat and I'm reluctant to fish Big Bank which is 25 miles or more from Ukee, a long run back if the north wind comes up. Mostly I've fished inside South Bank, the Spade area, also called the Turtleshead, from what...
