Who's Fishing NY's Mecca?
 
Alrighty now...
You read about it...
You heard about it...
And you dreamed about it....


Just wondering... How many of you are planning to fish Montauk, NY - The Surfcasting Capital of the World? :)

InterPlanetaryAngler 08-18-2004 02:01 PM

I like to fish chunks on the South Side with 15 lb. mono.

iluvspots 08-18-2004 02:03 PM

I like to chunk annoying little aliens at Coconuts.

InterPlanetaryAngler 08-18-2004 02:05 PM

Kinder and freindlier banter :buds: please or I'll beam you back to that poor excuse of a planet. Why don't you go ask Johnny Kronuch where all the hot spots are and tell him you're from NJ. :af:

somebody please explain to me then...:huh:
Why do New Yorkers, and New Jersey folk drive to the cape to fish, when they got Montaulk? Also, Why in God's name do they drive right by, and thru Rhody? :confused: I don't get it, some of the best area to cover, and they come to this fish-barren, tired old sand bar.......maybe the ditch, but the outer... nahhh. :p

chris L 08-18-2004 02:08 PM

im into chunking the light when everyone else is plugging . I make many friends this way . I also use a large light or lantern on the balcony .

I also ask many questions and ask for spots at all tackle shops in town .

Hey, Martian-boy,

Don't you know the fishing is better on the North Fork?

There's a great little surfcasting spot called Plum Gut. You just need to walk a little further off the jetty at the cable crossing. Just a little. Don't worry about the rip, the water's real shallow there and you can walk out as far as you can. A full moon :bshake: is best.

InterPlanetaryAngler 08-18-2004 02:19 PM

Spots, why don't you go feed your eel to the bluefish at Shinnecock.

iluvspots 08-18-2004 02:25 PM

Martian-boy,

I want to introduce you to my friend Larry Pinkwaders. He is a thong-clad a-t-t-o-r-n-e-y, he'll make your eel wiggle, definitely your type. You and him would fit in real good at Fire Island. :eek:

InterPlanetaryAngler 08-18-2004 02:39 PM

IPA eel = kakuka

iluvspots eel = shoestring cabonga

chris L 08-18-2004 02:46 PM

IPA punches ILS in the eye who will have the shiner ?

FWW,
Where's Montauk?

chris L 08-18-2004 04:00 PM

glouster
you have won a day with weewee and a chance to go through his plug bag

fishweewee 08-18-2004 04:34 PM

Mike, I heard Montauk was somewhere in New Jersey.


Chris, you are mistaken, I won a chance to rummage through Gloucester2's cod jig bag. :devil:

ThrowingTimber 08-18-2004 05:28 PM

They drive by because there are no fish in RI :( Ever.... I'll settle the plug bag/jig bag dispute.... I'll go through both of them :D

Because there is no SAND in Rhode Island :laughs: :rotfl: :rotf2: :buds: :tooth: and you need to :walk: to spots. Besides we already have CT people, you can handle the Nx'Ers :doh:

Is that like the Hamptons? I'll go if Billy Joel puts on a keg paaaarrrtttyy and smashes up another car for entertainment.

The Vineyard is MECCA! Every place else is just purgatory.

The LIE. Unless you already live on Long Island there really is no such thing as a day trip out to Montauk. Three day weekends turn out to be 2 days of travel and a day to fish. My uncle though up in Bridgeport claims to take a short ferry ride out to Montauk for a long day of fishing. Life just sometimes doesn't seem right. I need to take a trip up to Bridgeport soon.
