Hi my name is Bruce. I'm from Brooklyn (Bay Ridge).

Haven't fished in years but have a renewed interest so I'm out of date so to speak. Will be pier fishing primarily for what is running.

Thanks for having me and nice to meet you all.

Thanks I appreciate it.

I heard fluke are running and sardines(?). What type setups, hooks and bait should I use?

Flytier Loc: Wilmington Delaware

For pier fishing I would use a medium spinner with a high low double hook rig, probably an ounce or Two of lead with either Gulp swimming mullet or strips of fresh squid for flike. Never heard of fish sardines in Brooklyn. Be prepared for snags. Never know what's in the water off Brooklyn. 😄
