Hello all,
We did ok on the trip to Albany this year. Everything on Live bait though. We did try trolling a bit but no takers. I think next year we will join you for a couple days down in Kingston.
5 of us hit the water friday and Sat morning. These two images below are the 2 largest fish we boated. 37 inches 26lbs and 32 inches 20lbs. Right in the middle of the slot.. All fish were in the slot. None to take home unfortunately.

Nice looking fish. Not a fan of the slot limit when the limit is 1

It was a fun trip, however i do like the idea of Kingston and having a marina/docks and being able to stay the night.

Sounds like they are still going strong in Kingston. Wish i had the time to run down this weekend but unfortunately its not going to happen. Not sure on the hat. That was my cousin from Burlington. He pulled in the largest fish on a live line herring no weights drifting just south 1/2 a mile of the yacht club in Albany.
