It is only a dozen minutes from my front door, with easy street parking and good trails. While some parks, such as Belmont Lake, really shine during autumn, Twin Lakes is a joy in spring, with many things blooming and a new crop of water fowl. Walking along the north end of the lake, you come to a spot with a small waterfall that is perfect for keeping things in perspective. Plan ahead, because there are no restrooms here.

You won't find a better or more dedicated captain and crew anywhere. The regulars are friendly and welcoming. The trips run anywhere from full day fluke to three quarter day sea bass. Tuna season in the canyon is about to begin. This season we go deep sea in 125' of water. I've fished all over Long Island and I always come back to my friends at Capt Lou fleet!

We spent a half day on the Fantasy III boat fishing for fluke. We started the day at 7:30 and…read morefinished by 3pm. You bring your own food and beer, and eat whenever you want. The skip drives the boat out of Freeport into the ocean about 3-4 miles before he tells us to drop our lines. Depending on where the fish are, the skip may move to another area with more fish. Fishing gear and bait are provided. You drop your line to the bottom of the ocean and wait. Besides fluke, you can catch see bass and sea robins. My friend caught an eel when we were above a reef. When the day is sunny, wear shorts, a t-shirt, hat and bring sunscreen. If you get seasick, take Dramamine, otherwise you'd be sick and waste your time on the boat. I've never done this before and I'll definitely come back!

Room for a Dj and had someone there helping us clean up and help with whatever needed and must I say a great steal compared to other boat pricing in the area ... also very honest I misunderstood the price and went to overpay and they were quick to correct me! Great time!! Highly recommend if you're interested in something low key and different!

I must say fishing with Ernest Fernandez fishing buddies of America was one of the best experiences…read moreI could have ever had. We caught fish after fish after fish. He made certain that we were fed always providing a box of Popeye chicken with biscuits giving us a bottle of water and soda and walking around the boat asking is everyone okay. Fishing buddies of America has seen a lot of members come and a lot of members go. I was very happy to be a part of a fishing trip that took place in North Carolina on a 24-hour fishing vessel where we caught lots of Vermilion snappers the size limit and the limit for two days as well as Grunt and triggerfish. It was my first experience and a great one. It's sad to say though in 2018 Mr Ernest Fernandez passed away. He does have friends of fishing buddies of America who are running their own charters as a matter of fact there is a trip on June 9th the boat is almost full will be a dedication to miss the earnest Fernandez will we will dedicate to the sea memories of mr. Fernandez. I think that is a great way to pay homage to him. We will also fish on this day in memory of mr. Fernandez for one of his favorite fish porgies. I can see the smile on this man face now catching two parties at one time. Nonetheless great man and a great time I had with him fishing with fishing buddies of America tightlines forever mr. Fernandez

One of the trips was the best fluke fishing I have ever been involved in, with both big fish and a large number of fish being caught. Capt. Mike made good use of his knowledge of the fishing grounds and his array of electronics to put us on the fish time after time. On one of the trips I was fishing with two young cousins and Capt Mike and the mate were very patient with the boys, showing them how to fish and making it a great day for all. I highly recommend a fishing trip with the pros on The Codfather.
