While including our world class saltwater flyfishing, you might want to forgo western US fishing temperature restrictions and fish where visiting fly shop owners from MT & ID have used such terms as "spectacular" and "with fishing like that, why do you come out west" to describe our spring creek 'sweetwater' type fishing described within.

About this title

Synopsis

The fertile waters of Long Island Sound defines the character and scope of the Island's angling potential.

Long Island―the Montauk area in particular―has been discovered as a world-renowned saltwater fly fishing destination. The fall runs of striped bass, bluefish, and false albacore draw anglers from far and near. The island also has world-class freshwater fisheries with such exotic opportunities as sea-run brown and rainbow trout. Bass and panfish abound in lakes and ponds. Yet, until now no one has done a comprehensive guide to the amazing fly fishing opportunities Long Island has to offer. Peluso will tell you everything you need to know from where to go to how to catch the big one.
