Also try the bulkheads and piers, at the Captree Boat Basin. Just make sure you have your current Marine Registry form on your person, if you're 16 or older. They can be excellent sites.

What is a Marine Registry Form pardon my ignorance but never heard of this.?

For many years I use to hop a little private charter boat out of Manhasset bay named The Swedish Princess. It was owned and operated by a guy named Steve Fallon or Capt. Steve as I use to call him.I swear he looked like Dee Snider of Twisted Sister very Nordic. Wasn't much of a boat but dam did we catch every fish in that bay 10x over.Big blues, lunker Stripers and Fluke, snagged tons of bunker,even caught some weakfish here and there.We never had to go far out of the bay but we always caught our limit and did a lot of catch and release too. Capt. Steve could fish man I swear. Even when things were still and not much action he would pull them up.He moved to Ohio I believe saying he was going to be landlocked. Miss that dude.

It was the FREE substitute, for which SASI fought, in place of the fee-based, saltwater fishing license. When you renew your hunting/freshwater fishing license(s), you should make sure that the clerk also has you listed in the Marine Registry, so you can fish saltwater. The Marine Registry is not required, if you fish, soley, from party boats, as their license covers all anglers on board but, if you fish saltwater, in any other way, you need to be in the Marine Registry. You'll receive a "card," which looks like and is attached to your other hunting/fishing license "stubs." The Marine Registry requires annual renewal.

Me too, went on so many trips on the Helen H, AmberJack, Brooklyn V, etc. would pull up 2 porgies at a time (fishing on the bridge), this was in the late 70s early 80s. Snapper season was great too in the bay, in July and August. The Manhattan Beach side was good too. Fishing always sucked behind Korvettes and along the walkway to Bay Ridge, never caught shit there.

My last few trips on the James Joseph our of Huntington have sucked, all Sea Robins and shorts.

Does anyone remember catching black eels. Not the small ones you use for bait but the anaconda ones?

Yeah, I hit them a couple of times as a kid when going for porgies, my dad loved them (Italian off the boat).

It's free of charge. You can register online and print your registration card as soon as you're done. I just did for the hell of it. Took less than 5 minutes.

you still have to remember to renew it.  I put the reminder in my Iphone and on next year's Wounded Warrior wall calendar.   Finding the link is easy.   Remembering for some of us is not, lol.
