It's a long shot, but I might be going over that weekend. If I am I can give you guys a ride. Keep in touch and we'll see what happens. Of course a lot depends on the weather.

It's a long way no matter which way you go ...

But if anyone is interested in considering the weekend before or after - possibly the weekends of Oct 31 or Nov 14 ... I would be open to considering it as well ...

New London is the ferry you want.

https://www.longislandferry.com/Default.asp

Then the 2 Shelter Island ferries (eff driving around) then through Sag and onto the Montauk Highway.

This time of year, call same day to make a reservation.

I'm not going to be able to make it. But if you go, take the ferry from New LONDON drive west from the ferry to the town of Greenport and look for the Shelter Island Ferry signs right on Rte 25A (That's the road west from the ferry) Take the ferry onto shelter island, drive the length of the island and then take the ferry off the island to Sag Harbor. (follow Rte 111 all the way) Stay on Rte 114 to Rte 25 (Montauk Highway) and hang a left. It'll take you right into Montauk.

Just got back from there. Worked the area real hard. Nothing great. Biggest was about 36" - 37". Fishing was difficult for everyone. Very spotty. Maybe I was there too early this year and it may be better in a week or two

Mike,
I believe it's Rte 114 to Rte 27. You have those guys looking for 111 and 25 and they'll end up 80 miles west of Montauk right around the corner from my house .
