I know it wasn't Long Pond, I think it was Big Sandy Pond. I really don't remember what my buddy said but it wasn't Long Pond because he said there was a 50hp limit on that pond. My buddy said people waterski on the pond in season so we figured we'd be fine if we did some hot laps on it, about 1/3 was still ice, 3-4 inches thick. There was not a soul on or near the water on Saturday, and it did feel good to be out again. I'll be out somewhere both on Saturday and Sunday, then next weekend, us Suffolk County workers get Friday off as well, nice. I know, really, no secret, this is not like spot burning, or even freshwater-run your boat for the first time of the season-burning. Soon, every place will be ice free and the boaters/fishermen will be back at the ramps getting it ON!
