Some Photos and comments from 2007:

Pete Unger caught the blackfish of his life on November 11, 2007 while fishing in only 20 feet of water using green crabs. To his credit, he released this beautiful female that weighed 13 pounds and 8 oz. to spawn again. GREAT JOB PETE and CONGRATULATIONS  on your catch and conservation efforts.

Tropical Storm Noel passed over 150 miles off the eastern end of Long Island on November 3, 2007 and was still strong enough to really churn up the LI Sound and stop fishing for a couple of days. Here is Southold Town Beach.

On a chilly and rainy  October 22, 2005, Leon Marcus (right) and friends Paul Pomerantz (from left), son Spencer and friend Artie Reugger fought the elements including wind to bag their limit of fine striped bass. Paul had the largest fish at 22 pounds.

Saturday, August 20, 2005 Steve Lorras took son Nick and his friend Cody  for an action packed day on the Coyote. They bucktailed bluefish and striped bass till their arms drooped. Cody and Nick show a brace of short stripers just before carefully releasing them. Part of the day's harvest, a fine pile of porgy fillets, was well worth the great effort.
