    Exotic species

    I haven`t personally seen them,but I heard from reliable sources of exotic species seen in the western sound.I`m talking dolphins,sea turtles,whales and mola mola.Someone at my marina in City Island said he saw a small sea turtle at the dock.This is great but I wish there were some keeper fluke...

    They have to stock winter flounder to bring them back

    Benny,you talking about Milti on the North Star. That old crab used to argue with everyone on board. I was aboard one day with a small crowd. He put out a clothes line with a dozen hooks attached on both ends with rods,and caught fish.

    Looking for a reel replacement for my old Calcutta 50...

    Benny,Did you lose the calcutta 50 or is it not performing like it used to? I have one and decided to start using it again .I dolled it up and put boca bearings in it. We`ll see how it performs this year. You can also look at the curado 50 from Shimano.

    Rhetorical question

    I believe the cormorants are the main reason there aren`t many flounder inshore.You won`t see them offshore,too deep.

    Tautog Poucher

    The keeper ratio has been pitiful this year in the western sound.Some days it`s hard to get anything near keeper size I do believe all these %$##$%^^ keeping shorts are out of control. They have the nerve to clean their shorts out in the open at my marina.Most of the shorts are being sold live...

    April 1st openers

    I had to get out on this beautiful day. I had a plan to blackfish first and then give flounders a shot. I hit a local wreck with clams and green crabs and had immediate action on both baits . Wound up with 4 short blacks,biggest 14.5". After a while I tried other pieces without luck. Flounders...
