Re: Glory Days Let's Hear Em
As a 10 year old kid, going out on a party boat with my best friend and his Dad. We went fishing in the spring for mackerel. He taught me how to jig for them. I remember how proud I was to catch my first fish and bring home my 8 mackerel to my Mom.
She then taught me how to clean them and cook them.
As the years went by, I would go out with them for blues, sea bass, flounder, fluke and blackfish. And of course porgies! We would travel out to Greenport on Long Island, because the big humpbacks were there! We would come home with burlap bags stuffed with those porgies, then give away plenty to neighbors on the street.
Fun times!
