Fisherman Builds his own boat to catch Marlin
Captain Jeff and The 46 Wesmac Captain Jeff Maggio is well known in South Florida as one of the top inshore Snook and Tarpon guides. He comes from a family of a Custom Sportfishing builders, so when decided he wanted to expand his fishing territory it only made sense they he custom build his own Sportfishing vessel unlike anything else is the South Florida waters that are known to have hundreds of Marinas slap full of Hatterasses, Vikings, and Bertrams. Jeff knew what kind of fishing he wanted to do, and the typer of boat it would take to do it. So he went to Maine and ordered a 46 Wesmac Hull. Yes a Down Easter type of fishing boat with the huge entry and extended cockpit oftem used by Lobster guy in the rough waters of the North Eastern United States. Check out this mashup video edit that covers the few years of building the boat, launching it, outfitting it with fishing gear and ultimately getting out there and catching a Marline.

New Fishing Reel Oil and Lube - Battle Born
Captain Jeff using the Battle Born Lube on a Fin Nor Sport Fisher We love it when YouTube viewers send us stuff. Last week we got a package in the mail from a viewer named Steve. He noticed our struggles trying to keep these reels functional after putting them through a a couple severe months of catching huge River Tarpon . Steve sent us the Battle Born lubrication kit to try out. Thats awesome, if you have watched out videos over the years you have seen a few videos where Jeff struggles with the OEM oils that often come when buying a new boxed reel. They don't tend to throw in the oil when you buy a ready made combo, but if you go through combos at the rate we do, you tend to slap new reels on old rods. The Battle Born kit contained one bottle of oil, and a a tube of lube with an excellent delivery system by way of syringe. Check out the video. We will let you know how the Battle Born lubrication system worked as soon as we put this reel back on another 100 big fish. Vid
