i've had a great sept, considering how much i've fished, but this year has been the worst big fish year for me. I can't complain, i've caught more 30lbs fish this year then i ever have in one single year, but breaking 40lbs has been impossible for me. this will be the first time in like 7 years i dont catch a 40lb fish :( loosing my touch. i have to weeks left........Talk about pressure.

as said before, bite the bullet and throw snakes or riggies. I had one of my best night this season last night with big eels. And not one YED :humpty:

Montauk has been OFF THE HOOK for the past three weeks. Bait all over, mullet and anchovies. Pods of bass making the water black when they aren't blitzing. You just have to work certain stages of the tide and you are in. Nothing bigger than high teen fish but there are a lot of them. :jump1:

There's still time. I think the best shot at a very large is still ahead of us (or upon us now).

I think you were across from me at that blitz, it was fun for 27" fish, two out of state guys that happened to walk up with tiny fly rods had a blast but broke one rod, I managed a half dozen or more on a small shad, better luck this month
