Saltwater Profile: Peter Lindgren, President & CEO, Lindgren-Pitman, Inc.

"What does a workaholic do when there’s a slow day at the office? For Pete Lindgren, president and chief executive officer of Lindgren-Pitman (LP), it meant creating a product that would forever change the sportfishing industry, particularly in deep-dropping for swordfish, snapper, and grouper. It was 2005. The commercial side of the Pompano Beach, Florida-based deep-sea fishing equipment manufacturer wasn’t occupying as much of Lindgren’s ground-breaking genius.

7 Winning Tactics from Costa Rica Fishing Tournament Champion Capt. Rudy Arguedas

" Taking the path less traveled has become one of Captain Rudy Arguedas’ most powerful tournament-winning strategies. When competing in a Costa Rica fishing tournament, conventional wisdom often leads the fleet to the same proven spots, creating fierce competition for limited bites. But Arguedas has built his reputation on doing things differently, and his victory at the 2020 Pelagic Rockstar Offshore Tournament proved that strategic thinking pays dividends in Central America’s largest and richest fishing competition."

CALCULATED FLAVOR: Engineering Sportfishing Meal Prep

"Tournament season has a rhythm all its own—and if you’re the one responsible for meals, groceries, and crew logistics, that rhythm can feel relentless. Traveling teams know this better than anyone. From Thursday’s shotgun start to Saturday’s lines out, everything is nonstop. Then comes the sprint to the next event, with barely two days to clean the boat, rig tackle, handle laundry, and somehow plan meals without a car or easy access to stores. That’s where a reliable sportfishing meal prep plan can turn chaos into calm."

The December issue of 𝘐𝘯𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘉𝘪𝘵𝘦 is our annual Refit Issue, in which we explore the intricacies of redoing older boats. This time we look at two different renovations, a 92-foot Hatteras in for mostly cosmetic work, and a 41-foot Jarrett Bay, which underwent more substantial changes, including repowering. We also have a fascinating feature about how the ancient art of gyotaku fish printing is making its way from art galleries to boat hulls, and our “Splash Report” takes a look at the latest 66-footer from North Carolina’s Winter Yachts. We profile famed fish photographer Richard Gibson too! All this and much more in the December 𝘐𝘯𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘉𝘪𝘵𝘦!
