This makes me laugh every time I watch it After the Dentist-Click Here

I did see one guy who limited out by 7:30 back fishing when we left at 10. hmmm maybe this happens alot but I bet it happens at all parks. Doesn't make it right though. Also, there were alot of dead trout in the water at Bennett. In the small area where we were at 6:30 I counted 5. Sad...and such a waste. A

I was at Bennett Sunday morning (6-28-09) from the buzzer to about 10 o'clock. Now any of you who know a little about me you know I just started this trout fishing thing (has me hooked already) This was only my second time... Here is my take. My first time was at Montauk and when the buzzer went off it was like a mad house. You couldn't keep up with everyone catching fish around you. At Bennett first cast I landed one, and then a few small ones that I put back. There were a good amount of people around me and only two sets of people were slaying them. We had a woman and two men that were there together that all three of them limited out within thirty minutes and they left. Now what they limited out with was smaller than what most limit out with at Montauk, but maybe they were bleeding and had to keep them or maybe not. Then there was a family of four that all limited out. We moved down stream into heavier current and started catcing some really good ones around 9am. Noone else that we could see was catching much of anything, but they were pretty far from us. It wasn't over crowded but it did seem like they were only hitting on a few certain things, but that's just the opinion of a newbie. Hoping to get to hit up Montauk on 7-11 if I'm not at FanFest. hmm that's a hard choice....FanFest or Trout fishing.... take care, A

Well guys thanks for all the great tips. I caught one pretty good sized one and a few smaller ones. It was beautiful and the weather was great. I really appreciate all of you who left me such great tips. My first cast is when I landed my pretty good sized one. I can't wait to go back soon. thanks, A

Thank you all so much!!! It is all super apperciated. I'm so excited but I don't want to look like an idiot not knowing what I am doing. Yes, I will be the girl you guys would all look at and go "First time trout fisher" with a nice chuckle. What is the average size trout you all catch at Montauk? I don't want to keep anything too small but I don't want to want for bigger and better and end up not taking anything home. I know Brown trout have to be 15 inches and there is no inch limit on rainbow but what is an average size for that area? Again, thank you all so much for the info. I can't wait to try it all out. What time does the shop there open? I wonder how the fishing will be with all this rain? thanks, A

I'm going fishing for the first time at Montauk this weekend(weather permitting) It will also be my first time trout fishing. I usually fish bass and catfish. Do you guys have any tips or suggestions for first time trout fisher? I have talked to a few people who tell me to make sure I use a super small hook and told me to use canned corn. What do you guys think? I don't do the fly fishing thing so any other tips would be much appreciated. Thanks, A
