    Very windy and raw out there in the bay today.

    My Brother went to the Green Island Pier at the 3rd Wantagh bridge last night and said they were getting a good number of gorilla blues and bass casting out shads about an hour before slack. My brother had a 10 pound bluefish at the surface and broke the line. Couple of days it'll be slack...

    Where to buy Skimmer Clams cheap ?

    I'm thinking of getting a recreational clamming permit at Town Of Hempstead and use my clam rake on a slow day and get a bushel . A bushel of skimmers is 75-100 dollars. Trouble is the bay is mostly closed to clamming and the good areas get worked a lot.

    Is the Gulf of Mexico a better place to fish overall and fish there in a small boat?

    Fantastic comparison. Does the Gulf side have patch reefs like in the Keys ? I'd like an area with extensive flats , great for small boat fishing. A couple of Freeport Party boat Capt's retired down on the West Coast, now I know why.Thanks.

    Is the Gulf of Mexico a better place to fish overall and fish there in a small boat?

    Debating whether to buy a winter home on the Gulf side of Florida or on the Atlantic side of Florida. I'm looking at manufactured 55 communities where you own the lot. One thing that caught my eye , it's pretty shallow in the Gulf out 15 miles or so. Like Long Island depths . Is there Blue Water...
