EBen , use to be in the art show every June on that lawn ,next to the towers, that photo sold well, but I got some better ones////////////////////:laughs:


FWw how did you Ho that from me ??????????/:confused:

I got my ass kicked at that bridge jigging squid. Something big liked the squid jig and just took off under the bridge. 10# test on a freshwater rod, never had a chance :(

There's a place a few miles away where I spent a lot of cold Oct nights with a honkin' NW wind, and never felt the cold--in fact, I wound up sweating from bailing fish. On a honkin' NW, you can cast an eel clear to the other side (hint, hint). ;)

Sounds like we got some Derby guys here. I started fishing the derby in 1985--you guys remember the size of the bluefish that year, down on that sweet little beach, up island. I think some world records were set that year on fly and feather weight gear.

I haven't won a thing not even a daily:smash:

Anyone say Jonah???????????????????????

Sure.. I do one like that in Newport every summer... Lots of schmoozing and when its over lots of boozing.

... And in the daylight you could see it. And if the wind wasn't honkin but lighter from that same direction it could stink bad...

Mike P

chop, chop, you don't want to miss that tide in that wind


God where is Swimmer, How many Days before we go. I love the Derby.

I dunno, you said CT (never fished there) but it also looks like Moriches looking west from the Cupsogue jetty.

he was photographing inside your abode when he should have been resting for a day on the boat catching blues .

Was in yer basement, you were looking for your mounted white perch, but couldn't find it, and we stumbled on your stash of photos. U said I could ho one... :hihi:

Or Shinnecock. :laughs:

Nope--the other side isn't built up enough for it to be Shinnecock ;) No buildings, no parking lot.

'Course I've never seen that one by daylight so I could be wrong :D

Now I'm really in trouble, I can't remember where that photo was taken! :laughs:

my first thought was shinne .

Wait...it is Shinny. I think. The East side is the 4WD access (see the sand sleds). The photo is looking NE from the SW.

Nope--the sleds aren't allowed on the beach until somewhere west of that side. Also, the west jetty at Shinney has a tower on the end. All Moriches has on the west side is a small flasher 100' from the end of the jetty and an old, rusted-out pole 40' south of the flasher---which I've lost fish to from time to time when they run around the front end :smash:

I'm confused. :laughs: Could have sworn it was Shinny. The opening of the inlet to the ocean is to the right, while the body of water heading towards the canal is to the left. No?!!!! By the way, this pic was taken in 1997, I think.

-WW

well where ever it is Im pretty sure I fished it

.

I GREW UP OUT THERE.... ITS THE WEST SIDE IF SHINNECOCK LOOKING EAST BACK INTO THE BAY

I TOLD YA SO!!!!!!

Man that inlet has got some real width. Got to be a killer jigging spot.
What's the average depth?
And how hard does the tide ebb?
Just wondering; it is a haul for me to get there, and besides, I'm a Rhode Island man--we don't like driving far.

"Going up to Providence," I said.
"Whow! Heading on a road trip, are you?" she said.

Duh :doh: you're on the west jetty looking east, ya rat bastage :laughs:

I use 3 oz. The current cranks pretty good. Depth, not as deep as the Canal, I'd say average 20' and some good drop-offs.

Isn't that what I said? :laughs:

You edited it as I was typing and then I hit the road :laughs:

That might me me standing on the rock somewhere aft of that sled ;)

Okay MikeP, I think I can sleep now. I just found the rest of the prints that went along with the spot in question. It definitely is Shinny. Turn 90 degrees south and this is the view...

Wanna venture a guess as to where this is?

Edgartown, looking North from the Chappy side?

I think this one is a tuffy - would be very impressed if you could i.d. this one.

On the On Time II ?
