Bucket list aside, all three places are difficult and often frustrating to fish. They are also all heavily fished by very experienced fishermen ( lots of competition).
The places get their reputation on giving up some trophy fish, year after year. They don't get the reputation for being easy to fish or reliable spots day in and day out.
I can't speak for Montauk, but I can access the canal or Cutty pretty easily anytime I want. I find that I do better fishing elsewhere most of the time.
MA has hundreds of miles of coast, most of which sees minimal fishing pressure. If you are starting out there are lots of places worth trying before you break the bank and your spirit on the famous spots. Fishing can be, and often is, poor at those as well.
