I beleive "OLD SCHOOL" IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT, mr. poke. Because old school is a record player with copper and mutiple sutton spoons which you pull now and then to increase the lure action - but I'm sure that was before your time. Flat lines and planar boards are not old school - just one of the ways we all still use.

As one of those "pros charter captains" I found your report amusing but also insulting, but that was your intention anyways. I'm sure some of the "stories" here are a bit "padded" but there is alot of good info here too. As charter captains we are ALWAYS looking for the trophy fish but the "dinks" are also at the same locations too - If you have a "dink" separator for sale please sell me one.

With this all said congrats on your winning fish and added money to our community. Please come back, spend more money, and please add your postings sooner so all of us so called "pros" know where the big ones are.

I think pokepole waited till he made his 1200 mile trip home before making this post. It is one thing to insult but it is another thing to do it from a far away knowing the possibility of confrontation is slim to none. I too have experienced your posts and you must have a very sad life for I never see anything positive come from you. Oh yeah and my VHF has a new option called on and off switch, it is a wonderful option and I use it frequently. Maybe you should have used yours and prevented all this anger.

I thought old school was when you swam down and caught one with your teeth?

[pokepole39]

dont know about the teath but have noodled catfish in bama does that count .. not as much fun as one would think a 20 lb cat on the end of your hand but much better than a snapper or cotton mouth for sure

[jason]

if you dont have teeth or a tooth you can gum them.

Gotta tell you I don't understand where this guy is coming from. As a newbie I have recieved nothing but honest help from everyone I've chatted with on this site. Sean (who by the way is a pro) will stand at the launch and give you every detail on how his day was, were he caught fish and what he caught them on. Ben and Wes actually took me with them early on to show me how they put fish in the boat and it was a tournament weekend. Others have given me info while on the water struggling to find fish and off the water when I was trying to figure out equipment and gear for my boat. As for the chatter....give me a break....If you don't like it don't read the posts and last time I checked most radios have a little nob you can turn to shut it off.

Regulations Requiring Monitoring and Listening to VHF Marine Radios

A charter boat whose radio was not tuned to the proper channel missed a severe storm warning. By the time the captain learned of the storm, it was too late to return to shore. The ship sank and a couple of persons died. A yacht in trouble off the west coast of Mexico and far from help saw a passenger ship. What should have been a quick rescue could have turned to disaster when the passenger ship (improperly) had its radio off. The yacht was able to attract the ship's attention, however, and was rescued. Misunderstanding of passing intentions by approaching vessels and near collisions have repeatedly been averted by working radios tuned to the proper channel.

Who regulates whom?

Three U.S. government agencies, the Federal Communications Commission, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, and the U.S. Coast Guard; and two international organizations, the International Telecommunications Union and the International Maritime Organization; have each established marine radio watch keeping regulations. Regulations on radio watch keeping exist for all boats and ships --commercial, recreational, government and military, domestic and foreign-- carrying marine radios.

International Telecommunications Union (ITU). ITU regulates all use of radio spectrum by any person or vessel outside U.S. waters. ITU rules affecting radio, which have treaty status in the U.S. and most other nations, are published in the ITU Radio Regulations. The ITU has established three VHF marine radio channels recognized worldwide for safety purposes:

Channel 16 (156.800 MHz) - Distress, safety and calling

Channel 13 (156.650 MHz) - Intership navigation (bridge-to-bridge)

Channel 70 (156.525 MHz) - Digital Selective Calling

International Maritime Organization (IMO). IMO regulates the outfitting and operation of most vessels engaged on international voyages, except warships. Most IMO radio regulations affect all passenger ships and other ships of 300 gross tonnage and upward. IMO rules affecting radio are promulgated in the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention which has been ratified in the U.S.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) - the FCC regulates all sales, marketing, and, use of radios in the U.S., including those onboard any recreational, commercial, state and local government, and foreign vessel in U.S. territorial waters. These regulations are contained in Title 47, Code of Federal Regulations.

National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) - NTIA regulates all use of radio onboard any federal government vessel, including military vessels. NTIA rules do not apply outside the federal government.

U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) - The USCG regulates carriage of radio on most commercial vessels, foreign vessels in U.S. waters, survival craft, and vessels subject to the Bridge-to-Bridge Act (generally all vessels over 20m length) and operating in a Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) area.

Radio Watchkeeping Regulations

In general, any vessel equipped with a VHF marine radiotelephone (whether voluntarily or required to) must maintain a watch on channel 16 (156.800 MHz) whenever the radiotelephone is not being used to communicate.

Source: FCC 47 CFR §§ 80.148, 80.310, NTIA Manual 8.2.29.6.c(2)(e), ITU RR 31.17, 33.18, AP13 §25.2
