2010 LI Recreational fishing expo

[DarkSkies]

Guys and girls, if you can make it there before the snow, this show is one of the best of the LI shows. It's run by Willy Young and the NYCRF.

He and the NYCRF guys have fought for access at Brookhaven, LI. and are a great bunch of fishermen. :thumbsup:

"Something for everyone", there's even a fishing clinic for kids.

Here is is:
Just to get a chance to meet Willy Young would be worth the price of admission alone. He's one of LI's most active fishermen when it comes to fishermens' rights. His organizing and protests have paved the way for much of LI to have access opened to fishermen.

He's also a great fisherman with several trophy fish to his credit, and a helluva nice guy. Stop by and say "Hi!" to Willie. :HappyWave:

Great seminars and some of the best plugbuilders in the area, check it out:

Take a few minutes to stop by the Stripercoast Surfcasters table at the show. I'm one of the founding members, and proud to be associated with that club of hardcore surfcasters.

Make sure you stop by the Stripercoast Surfcasters table and say hello, I will be there all weekend.

We will have a plug raffle with three different lots of plugs and teasers to give away. All plugs and the teasers are made by our members. You plug afficionados have to see the PVC plugs. Some good stuff.


Stop by and say Hi to Frankiesurf and the guys, some of whom are members here as well. :HappyWave:

The President, Gunny AKA Stripercoast1, is a retired Gunny sergeant who has been fishing since he was 6 years old, an amazing rod-builder, creative plug and bucktail maker, and one of the best guides on the coast of Rhode Island. The man can smell fish when they're around. :fishing:

If ya go there, say Hi to Frankie and the Stripercoast crew.
