Captains Andy and Rich spend a day in early October visiting several shoreline locations on Ling Island with some very special guests.  Rich and Andy leave their boats behind and split up in the morning in search of bass and blues.  Rich heads off with "Crazy" Alberto Knie from Aquaskinz to enjoy some great fly fishing, while Andy teams up with Paul Michele from Yo-Zuri to test out some new swimming lures and Fluorocarbon leaders.  After lunch Rich meets up with Bill "Doc" Muller from Uncle Josh for some red bucktail/pork rind action. In addition to hosting the show, Captain Andy runs Long Island Fishing Charters and Captain Rich runs R&G Charters.  Both boats leave port only minutes from these very same waters.  The techniques and tackle in this show can be used by anyone who wants to get in on the fall diamond jigging bite.  If you have questions about any of the equipment used during the show, please contact us or  send us a message
The spinning outfits used by Andy and Paul, and later by Rich and Doc, consisted of a  Shimano Stradic 4000 spinning reels on the new Teramar rods.  These 7' medium heavy, fast action rods were a perfect for the reels and lures used in this show.   The casting distance and hook setting power are exactly what is needed.

The spinning reels were loaded with 20lb Berkley Fireline.  A 24" 40lb leader of the new Yo-Zuri Disappearing Pink Fluorocarbon (available January 2005) leader was attached to the main line using an 80lb SPRO Power Swivel.  The new Yo-Zuri Live Bait Minnow (available January 2005) plugs in 5" 1/8" (1oz)  in a variety of colors (they all worked) proved to be irresistible.  Rich and Doc were throwing 1-1 1/2oz SPRO bucktails tipped with red o Uncle Josh 240 Pork Strips
 
The fly fishing outfits used by Rich and Alberto consisted of a G-Loomis Syncrotech GL8-9-10 reel on a 9wt three piece Cross Current fly rod.  The reel features a cork disk drag, a quick release machined spool, and a large arbor for fast retrieves.  This combo is the perfect outfit for stripers and blues.
The fly reels were loaded with 9wt Orvis Striper Wonderline Advantage and knotless Mirage 9ft/12lb knotless tapered leaders.  A variety of Orvis saltwater flies were used including Clousers, Peanut Butter, Cowen's Baitfish, and Lefty's Deceiver, Skipping Bugs, and Gummy Minnows.
Rich was wearing an amazing pair of Tailwaters XT  waders from Orvis.  These waders are attached directly to the wading shoe with a built-in stocking foot support.  The boots lace up quickly and easily and fit perfectly. They are incredibly comfortable and completely dry. They also fold up into a very small and lightweight carry bag. 
All the tackle used on Northeast Angling is stored in Ameripack tackle systems.  The Backpack Tackle system is used to get the tackle to the fish!  All the rods and reels are transported using the Rod Pods and the Reel Locker.  They insure that everything makes it to the shoot in perfect condition.  Their versatile Fly Boxes are also used for bucktails and rigs.
