    What to bring on my Nantucket Shoals Trip Next Week

    Heavy sinkers needed up to 28 oz. And leader material to handle it (50 lb+). If you use droppers make sure loop goes above eyelet of minimum 8/0 long shank hook and not in that notch by shank. I still have nightmares about how I lost Flukzilla....

    Post your 2019-2025 Fluke Pix & Trip Reports Here!

    AFTERNOON DELIGHT: got out briefly today with my usual crew but based on conditions we fished the afternoon not the morning. Good call, we had 7 Ks up to 6 lbs. , I'm hopeful that the ocean bite this year resembles what we've caught in the river (fingers crossed)

    Kissena park.

    Me too! Francis Lewis HS class of '73. Carpin' was gr8 there in the 60s and 70s but there were even bigger ones at Flushing Meadow. Used to ride our bikes everywhere with our 2 piece fishing rods tied to the frames. We'd even race our fishbikes at the Kissena Park Velodrome (fancy word for...

    NJ Sea Bassin' - as good as it gets

    Each year regs are adjusted statewide based on Fed guidelines versus previous year. Unfortunately reductions do not take into account the historic disparity between states. NY continues to suffer from sins of past.
