Today, on the 5th day of my annual two week September vacation I went to this place with my Bud Eric Lafleur. I left home on Cape Cod at just before four in the morning and got there at six fifteen. Do you know "where" this is?

Bernzy's Surf Howdy saw continuous action today, no doubt it was the hotest plug in the arsenal. Way over 25 bass to 17/18 pounds from twinkies in the 24 inch range and throw in a couple massive Bluefish then this is what the plug looked like after the contest, bloodied but not beaten!!!! Hey Bernzy, think about making one of these in yellow, but say an inch longer and hike the body dimension by about 30%. Your picture is on my piano! Absolutely great lure!!!

north of boston?

nice fish and nice plugs:D

Flaptail 09-15-2004 04:24 PM

Nope and yes, they are nice plugs.

rocketman 09-15-2004 04:25 PM

Like a dream date. What is the clip on the plug eye in the last pic?

Flaptail 09-15-2004 04:46 PM

Break-a-Way 50lb. speed clip. Just started using them awhile back on advice from MikeCC. I have the 80lb ones as well. As long as I can get them I don't think I will ever use a conventional snap again. They are awesome and made from spring stainless Steel. Mikes got 'em if you need 'em on his site or you can pick them up from him at M&D's in person.

I agree with Eben, east side of Fisher's Island which is closest to Connecticut, but part of New York.

Slipknot 09-15-2004 07:52 PM

I hate you

theSURF121 09-15-2004 09:32 PM

Looks like the Dupont abode on Fisher's Island, New Yawk in the background.

BigFish 09-15-2004 09:58 PM

New York! New York! And boat fish do count, so there!!!!!!!!!!:D

Flaptail 09-16-2004 04:52 AM

Bart, I find that my St. Croix Tidemaster 8' lightweight conventional casting stick with a Shimano GT-100 works best. 30lb Stealth to a 25 lb. test Fluorocarbon leader and snap. Side action twitch so it zig-zags and occasionally pops up. The bass cannot resist it.

Attaboy, Flap :btu:

Way to go!

And yeah, you're right - Bernzy's Surf Howdies are the....uhhhh....breasts...:tooth:
