See Life Paulagics has secured an overnight pelagic out of Freeport, Long Island this August. The date falls within a great window for target species like Audubon's Shearwater, Band-rumped and White-faced Storm Petrels.
Leave: Mon, Aug. 11 @ 8:00 PM Return: Tue, Aug 12 @ 6:00 PM The early departure will allow ample time to be beyond the continental shelf edge and chumming before sunrise. This is the ideal for giving us the best opportunity to locate deep water specialties. A more detailed description and wish list can be found here- http://paulagics.com/?page_id=575 Due to the need for sleeping space, this trip will cap the number of participants below normal day trips. Registration is open now. I think I speak for all the pelagic enthusiasts out there when I say we've been waiting for a trip like this in NY for a long time! I can't wait!
