Photo Gallery: Long Island’s Labor Day Catches September 16, 2024 by Matt Broderick Around the island catches from the extended holiday weekend. Two-and-a-half-year-old Cash Peterson from the Osprey Fleet in Port Jefferson shows off her first striper ever while decked out in her Grundens gear. Six-year-old Louie Lago from Seaford, NY with a nice Labor Day South Shore fluke. Matteo Gonzalez and Mat Freidman show off their personal best fluke and bluefish catches between the Wantaugh and the Meadowbrook bridges all caught on live peanut bunker. Denise Ehlers shows off a 24-inch fluke she caught in Porpoise Channel over in the Stony Brook area. Justin Goldman caught this 142-pound bluefin tuna out of Fire Island Inlet on a UVT Jig. The fight with the big tuna went almost two hours! Brendan shows off his first bluefish the day before school started for him – what a great way to end the summer! It was caught in the Long Island Sound just outside of Port Jefferson Harbor.
