A Trout Fishing Adventure at Montauk

Matt Crossman takes us along for the adventure when he and his buddies go trout fishing at Montauk State Park. The river is cold and there are a few mishaps, but the reward is a delicious fish dinner around the campfire at the end of the day.


Fishing memories: Perfection on the water

“Fishing’s not just about catching, it’s about getting out and enjoying the outdoors. Catching fish is a bonus.” Granddad had many sayings like these that helped form a foundation that directly influenced my path in life. I’ve often wondered who—or what—would’ve come of me without that influence so early on. Fishing and life are one in the same if you asked me. The lessons learned on the water most definitely last a lifetime.
