Hi Lex; I was hooked on fishing particulaly for Fluke from the mid 50s to 1970. My father bought a 1958 Evinrude 7 l/2 hp motor. Capt. Eddies Fishing Station was partially owned by the brother of one of my parents friends that lived in Queens Village. From about 1959 to 1966, my family would rent a rowboat to fish in Seaford. In 1966, I had a Mirro-Craft 15ft. alum. boat with an Ev. 18hp which I upped to a 40. The rivets got loose in that boat, so the dealer(out in Mattituck) gave me a full trade-up to a 15 ft. Glastron(the same boat company that made the Batboat for the Batman tv series and boats used in one or two of the James Bond movies). Great Boat. Docked it by Capt. Eddies but my father and I would trail it to Stony Brook, Pt. Jefferson, Three Mile Harbor and some other places I can't think of offhand. I had to come down to Fla. to finish school, so I sold the boat in 1969 and came to Fla. that year. I never got back into the fishing thing down here too much. It was expensive back then and phrohibative now. It is getting dangerous to live here if the hurricane situation gets out of hand. I may know in a few days just how out of hand it may get depending on what Wilma does. Take care Lex. KELSCI.
Wow, all those Long Island and Queens referfences make me nostalgic as I know where EVERY one of them are.....I hope the hurricane season does not find you or your loved ones....take care as well, my friend!
