With the holidays behind us, this is a really tough stretch of the year for just about every fisherman on Long Island and the entire northeast. As much as the day you pull the boat hurts, the holiday season is somewhat of a distraction. Coupled…
The urgency of November fishing is nerve-wracking and thrilling at the same time. I doubt there’s any fisherman that’s not wanted “just one more”. As the days creep towards December so do the opportunities to end the season on a high note by boat or…

Almost there!! The off-season just feels longer and longer each year, and having actual winter temps this year didn’t help.Just about a month away from the first casts of the season from shore in the bays come late March. I’m on the east end of…
