I wrote this little piece about fishing for porgies on party boats for Food Republic. I work in television/food world so it skews mostly towards people new to fishing and includes 7 tips / things to know before going out (so they don't get kicked off ) :

1. Do not bring bananas if you want to stay on the boat
2. What gear to bring vs what's included
3. Fare info
4. Playing the pool
5. What spot should you choose to stand in
6. What to do with your fish after the catch
7. Tips for mates

Great Read! Should be tacked on every boats bulkhead from Sheepshead to Montauk.

FWIW I thought it was funny.

"Play the pool" In 50 years of fishing I've never heard that.

Bananas are an excuse for people that don't know how to fish.
