I was actually relieved. The first mate was trying to convince me that I should mount the shark and had a buddy who would give me a "good" deal. Just what I need, a junk fish mounted on my mantle for a thousand bucks. <br /><br /> Striper fishing is by far my favorite although we also go blue fin tuna fishing off the cape quite a bit. Long Island has an excellent reputation for Striper fishing. It is also excellent to eat on the grill.<br />KfellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11336670.post-34254214966098161862011-01-27T22:06:13.882-05:002011-01-27T22:06:13.882-05:00I can walk a few hundred yards from my house on Lo...I can walk a few hundred yards from my house on Long Island down to the Sound.<br /><br />People do fish right there and I have no idea how, what for, or if they are successful.<br /><br />I guess I'd better going down and ask them.<br /><br />As for going out in a boat fishing for stripers....I'd be all over that too.

Nothing biting and near the end of the day went to the mouth of the canal where all the casino cruise boats launch out of. We were using light tackle to see if we can get something and a spinner shark hit the line. I fought it for 1.5 hrs (on video) and got the shark to the boat a few times and the 1st mate attempted to gaft it and missed and smashed the butt of the gaft on my chin. Split it wide open. I still fought the shark for another 20 minutes, got it near the boat and it spun, snapping the line causing it to instantly transform into a bird's nest. This is when i noticed my shirt was covered with blood. It was the classic case of the big one that got a way.<br />KfellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
