Long Island (N.Y.) Fishing
After weeks of extensive planning and research we decided to head to Long Island on a fishing trip. The trip itself was very tiring mostly because we hit bumper to bumper traffic on every major highway we drove on. It was hot like hell. That much I can say about the 90 plus degrees temperature that day. Normally, it would have taken us a bit over an hour to reach our destination, but the traffic was so horrible that we ended driving for about two hours and forty-five minutes. Nonetheless, it was worth our while. It was fun and relaxing to be on the boat attempting to reel in the big catch. Fishing is not that bad after all and is an activity to be enjoyed by everyone young and old. Good luck to you all…

Some simple things to remember if you are going fishing:

1) Do all your Google mapping in advance. Find out the address of the place you are going to and the Boat you intend to board.
2) Call the Boat Company to verify the hour of departure, price, and address.
3) Always leave your house with ample time. Driving fast is too risky. You will be stopped by New York Finest and ticketed if you are lucky.
4)Pack some food. Sometimes, is hard to find food. Well, let’s say that it will cost you more than you anticipated, if you don’t buy your food in advance.
5) Good luck and I hope you catch something big. A final note, always join the pool for the biggest catch. Hey! You never know. You could get lucky.
