I definitely don’t agree with that .
Ny, RI and Massachusetts have been having awesome fluking this year .

They have had solid catches weekly .

I don't know what to say - that is the polar opposite from what I hear from people who fish from Montauk on north (regular patrons of party/charter boats + captains).

And its the polar opposite of people I know in the charter business and private boat owners north of NY / NJ as well.
