    I do know the towel trick. This particular bird hit my plug as soon as it landed. Pretty far out. I couldn't get him in. Trust me, I felt really bad.

    I think you found the Montauk Monster, Jersey style!

    Should have put my rod next to it for size comparison, but I was afraid of it......
    Was a good 6 feet long at least.
    Imagine standing in the water at 2:30 AM and this bumps into you

    Wow so are some intense pictures.

    Makes you wonder what strange creatures roam our seas and attack.

    Are you sure the kitty was locked inside on some of those days?

    Great thread.

    I wish I have a picture but definitely off all the dead things I've seen surfcasting this one took the cake: a leatherback turtle that had to weigh several hundred pounds or more at Block Island this year. It was simply enormous and stank up the beach pretty bad. It had a big gouge in the neck area so either it was attacked by a shark or got hit by a propellor. You would need a bulldozer or a crane just to move the thing off the beach.

    It looked intimidating enough that my buds and I kept a safe respectful distance from it.

    That thing is huge Monty, maybe the remains of an ocean sunfish?


    Here is something I found up at the Hook a little while ago. Looks like some kind of large sea bass that came from the netters, or maybe a small sunfish, it was about 3' long.

    Wow freaky stuff guys! Plugcrazy that thing looks like an ocean sunfish to me, but the mouth part is confusing, it almost looks like a beak or curved jaw. Monty, in the middle of the bottom pic you took, it kind of looks like a turtle's head, but that thing is too big to be a turtle. It's almost like some aliens were experimenting and dumped the body out of thier spacecraft when done.

    Plugcrazy and Monty those are exotic finds. The only thing I found this year was a dead bluefish while walking the dog at the summer house in LBI.

    Fishing an area I have fished for 15 years. Have never found 3 dead bass at one time. Used to never see a dead bass there. Last year more than ever, this year already ahead of last year. Middle pic has a fish in belly?

    Looks like it could be a weakfish in the middle.

    xtremevisions, that has the wings of a sea robin but the coloration of a dogfish. Must have been dead for quite some time. Was there a stink coming from it?

    So you put parts together from 2 creatures to make that? Awesome! Long Island has the Montauk Monster, we now have the Amboy Monster!
