Mike from the Lazy Bones reported good weather, good people and good fishing on August 26. Joey landed a personal-best 5-pound fluke, Andrew took the morning pool with a 6-pound fluke and Brother Matty walked away with the afternoon pool winner. Fluke fishing continues to provide a good mix of steady action and quality fish around Montauk. Call ahead for reservations at (631) 668-5671.

Captain Mike Vegessi got his start fishing in Montauk by chance. Many moons ago, an old salty captain yelled out to Mike “Hey kid, you want a job?” and the rest is history. Since this fortuitous encounter in 1977, Mike has worked very hard at leaving nothing to chance! His success has been a result of hard work, dedication, a love for Montauk, fishing, and providing a fun and entertaining atmosphere for each and every customer that steps aboard the Lazy Bones! While on the Lazy Bones, everyone is treated like family and this all starts with the crew of the boat. Mike practices what he preaches as his wife and daughters all play a role helping and providing for an enjoyable experience to those who step aboard. Montauk is called the “Sportfishing Capital of the World” for good reason. With Captain Mike at the helm and his family on deck, customers will be taught the local techniques to catch a wide variety of fish. By way of this attentiveness you will certainly begin to understand why Montauk has gained its nickname.
