Hi my name is John and I have a 24 Osprey and have the boat located in Mattituck. I would like to go fishing for sharks and tunas this summers so is there anywhere to fish for these fish on the north shore.
Thanks John

John,
The short answer is no. If you try real hard and are very persistant you might catch a brown shark in the sound.

Ditto Mike
Every year the odd shark is caught. I'm sure many more are never seen as most anglers are using lite tackle in the sound. I have lost some very large fish in the past that I never saw that I suspected were sharks. My father saw a large shark in Rye but that was in the 60's before they were targeted by long liners.
Plan a weekend to Montauk. Snug Harbor is a motel with boat slips that I stay at each fall. You can't miss once they arrive off montauk.
Tight lines, Jim
