Yeah I figure it might be a little busy there on Monday, but with the way this year is going if I don't get out there while I have this oppurtunity I may not make it out there at all.

Headed out and was standing at the shore line by first light yesterday morning. Nothing materialized early, but after a while there were fish breaking and birds working. The never got in close enough. Took a break and had some breakfast. Saw some birds and fish splashing on the NS, but it didn't last. Moved back to the SS. Found some fish working on the south side and finally got into some bass and some blues. Fish hung around for a while after that and then were gone again. Decided to walk where I left my father and my camera . Fish came in a few times and wanted nothing but bucktails. All in all it was a beautiful day in Montauk, but the fishing was by no means "stupid" and you had to work for the fish. I had a great time, fell a few times, got soaked, and caught a few fish which judging from reports over the weekend wasn't such a bad thing. I dropped my keys and by the grace of God found them in about a foot of water. Hopefully next year circumstances will be more in my favor and Ill be able to make a few more trips out there. Didn't have my camera on me because I left it in my backpack which the old man was carrying and I definately wasn't taking my cell out of the plastic bag I wrapped it in. I think Lou took a few pics so maybe I can get them up. This was also the first time my father and I ever fished Montauk together, and although he didn't really fish at all I was glad to have him with me. After watching all day, he replied "this surf fishing is too much work." Lol. Man he is getting old. Even though I have no pics, the memories will always be with me.

I should add that the "crowd" was lighter than expected.
