Gonna be in Montauk beginning of next week for our annual father/son "trek to tauk." I'm the son in this pair...Anyway it should be a nice trip. They usually are...my dad and I get away from work during the week and avoid the weekend crap and get a chance to just be two guys pounding the beach! Man I gotta tell ya, this guy sure keeps up with me...Last year we got out to Shagwong armed with darters when it seemed like a north gale wind was blowin' in our faces all nite. We had fun. Kept him there from 9 PM til 6 AM and he didn't squeak once...wait a minute....that's probably where I get it from.....
The usual stomping grounds are Brezzy Point/ Rockaways and the immediate surrounding areas like the 37th jetty in Coney Island and Gravesend Bay..
Anyway the rest of the fall run is usually spent in some haphazard unplanned way...like "hey, you wanna hit Montauk this weekend?" or "let's go hit Breezy Point tonite."
I do plan on fishing Sandy Hook quite a bit with my boy Chris and friends...and also plan to hit the Great Kills area in Staten Island a bit more now that I've made some new aquaintences thanks to the good ole internet
