    Stuck It Out To Get 4

    I agree regarding the reg being stupid but I think the reason for the reg is that the powers at hand think that there is more pressure on the LIS stock and it is a smaller body of water than lets say the Atlantic Ocean so the feel they need to protect it more. I may be wrong but that was always...

    Fluke Fluke Fluke

    we stayed in 1 area all day but like I posted, we had a solid drift all day. I guess your drift conditions were less than ideal. The bite did seem to be a bit slower on Friday and Saturday from the reports I was reading. Hopefully they stick around for a while and allow us all another...

    Fluke Fluke Fluke

    If you want to get in on a great fluke bite now is the time. Perfect weather, perfect conditions. The fish are there hungry and biting. Full boat limit on the Star yesterday for all. Lots of big quality fish. I know this sounds like a plug for the boat but it isn't. Just putting...

    Sunday High Tide

    Got out about 10am on the water. Took my neighbors kid. Battery acted up, kid got a bit seasick... I think mostly from the hot sun as it was pretty flat water out. Fished the Cold Spring Harbor area. While waiting for assistance from SeaTow, managed two sandsharks. 1 was the biggest...

    Smithtown Bay Fluke Bite Slows . . . Well for me anyhow.

    I was out yesterday as well. There were tons of cinderworms in the water off the Northport /Ft. Salonga area. There were bass everywhere gulping on them. A few big bass on bunker. I managed 2 shorts on 1 drift and then later managed another 2 off Ashroken lighthouse. When those...

    Sitka AK

    Got to fish AK for the first time. Always been a dream of mine. My daughter is fortunate enough to land a 4 week job there for the 2nd year in a row. Arrived Saturday and had a boat chartered on Sunday. Landed our limit of king salmon (Chinook) within a few short hours. The tide shut...

    Fluking

    Gave fluking another try on my 2nd trip out this year on my BW13. Made the run from OB to Eatons Neck. Took a while to find them but eventually found them. A small fleet was there. Saw most everyone pick away at fish with a few hootin and hollering. I was probably fishing with...

    Oyster Bay area.

    Took my 13 whaler out for the first trip of the year. Water was suprisingly flat considering the east wind. Fished near the entrance to the bay. Wind was providing for a nice drift as I caught the end of the outgoing from about 12-3. Managed to hook 2 fluke, 1 shook the hook at...

    2024 Black Sea Bass Regs

    Exactly.... If one is going fishing to recover their costs in filets, they are going for the wrong reason.

    Windy Tog

    15 for 3 dozen is good compared to the $8 a dozen I paid in Nassau County. Wish I had time to catch my own.

    Blackfish

    Armed with 4 dozen greens and 2 tubs of clam from Duffys B&T, sailed with a new friend who fishes with me on the Montauk Star. Sailed from Oyster Bay to Rye Playland area on Saturday in my 69 13' Boston Whaler. In a 1' chop coming straight from the west made for a bit of a tough ride for my...

    Huntington - Memorial Day

    Hit the JJ on Monday. Harbor was flat. Started off of The CG station near the rip there. Slow but steady pick of fish. After about an hour, someone hit the switch on the fan. Captain took us off Ashroken and then eventually inside near Sand City. Fish bit throughout the day...

    Fluke in OC

    Saw a report from an Ocean City MD site and they mentioned someone actually tried for fluke this past week and caught 2 in 51degree bay water. I'm not familiar with fluking in the Chesapeake or Ocean City area but think that this is a good sign for our upcoming season. I've always targeted...

    Kayak Flipped

    So, I am somewhat new to kayak fishing having only been out approximately 10 times in the LIS this year on my recently purchased Hobie Quest. Don't know why or what I did but I leaned a bit to my right to look at something approximately 1/2 mile off of Centre Island this past weekend. My...

    Temperature for Fluke

    Years ago, the PB's would fish for fluke on opening day and while the bite was slow compared to summertime the big fish were always pulled early in the season. I have seen great bites out of Mattituck the 2nd week of May. I would say the water temperature in that area is not nearly as big...
