Block after Thanksgiving

[chris L]

Thanks Dennis . Was very dangerous surf over the weekend , Tried Friday night to no avail . Was nonexistant around the island with all the rough water . Saturday didnt fish at all and Sunday was family day . I saw you driving past the 1661 after you got off ferry . Was a great family weekend without much fishing . We had a blast !
Good luck thos week

Found an orb after just 10 minutes of searching at Rodmans Hollow . #257 2018 behind stone sign at trail intersection . It will be registered .
It is an awesome project ! Everyone in my group (7) were looking everywhere we went . Everyone was so into looking for them . Got a couple people out looking who may never have walked the island before . Even I went on trails I never knew of . Most people staying at the 1661 were out looking for them . At the end of the day notes were shared with each other . Was an awesome time !
Thank You

My daughters talked to a Lady in the red , right, return . She was very informative and very nice . They enjoyed chatting with her .

That’s awesome !! Honestly, I did not have much hope for you in finding one. The last batch was hidden on Columbus Day weekend.
That was Judy at red right return. She is one of the nicest, coolest people I know out there.

I still haven't found one of the orbs. Eben you need to make glass plugs and hide them in the wrack line so I can find one

Sand eels on Block are generally not always noticeable. When you see them washed up there is generally a reason. Plenty of small fish out here so there is some kind of bait present.

Looks like the report says it all. It is the same everywhere. Lots of small fish.

2 years of Canal slaughter and EEZ abuse along with the biomass sitting in the SW Ledge during the Summer may have something to do with it.
There have been a few decent fish in NJ and Maryland. Not so much on LI. That's what my pipeline has been telling me.

If they were where I was looking I would have found one . We looked under everything in every tree around and in the walls . It was a lot of fun went to places on the island that dont have fish . Thats only the 2nd time I have done that . Even had 2 50+ mothers searching with enthusiasm !
My daughter and I are going back in the spring so she can have one . I gave mine to my daughter who is getting married at the end of the month , So she can remember the special weekend at the block .

Thank You
