Town Policy:

2. Non- residents can show D/L and pay $10 to fish any of ther public docks or piers in the daytime.
(Allegedly they just instituted this policy)

3. after 6pm, no permit is needed to fish any of the places below:


West Ave Docks: "Fishing on West Ave is very popular, it gets quite crowded on weekends" Apparently the West Ave docks were recently rebuilt. If any of these places were rebuilt with federal $$, that might be a line of defense in case it's suddenly decided to restrict access to fishermen.

Maple Street Docks, Islip: This is a smaller area to fish, more secluded.

Great River Town Dock, great River: off of Great River road in great River.

Rich, I was in deed at the West Avenue Dock. I also ran the situation past the owner of Chasin Tails Bait & Tackle and he said the he sends people to fish there at night all the time and what that guy did was B.S.
