Had a killa day today and suprisingly not that cold. Nasty comin back as the wind picked up hard. Couldn't boat any big fish but had some nice ones take around schools of Adult Bunker (weird, right?) and lotta rainbait as well as smallish Herring (7 inchers). No Gannets, just Gulls so far
Every cast a fish for most of the day as it has been the last week. Bout time as I was begining to wonder if it was over. Same pattern as the past, just about 3 weeks later.Very tight to the beach often as well as offshore but too spread out in the deep stuff.
Not looking too good temps-wise but hey, beats puttin the boat away....

I don't think I'm giving away any secrets here as there are about 100 posts on another website, but from reading them it looks like yesterday was an all-time great surfcasting day with big fish chasing herring anywhere from the Jersey Shore, to Long Beach, Robert Moses, Fire Island, Moriches, Shinnecock and Southampton.

What about Montauk--has the fat lady sung or is there still hope?
