  The Refurbishing of the Skimmer
The Skimmer has been icon on the Great South Bay since 1978 when Captain Al purchased her brand new. For over 30 Years the 23 Mako has fished inshore and offshore providing life long memories for many anglers. With her hull still strong and a ride soft and dry Captain Al decided to overhaul her instead of moving on to a new boat. Follow the progress all winter long as Captain Al Lorenzetti and friends brings the Skimmer back to new.

New Trophy Tackle LocationHurricane Sandy was devastating to the south shore of Long Island. The flood waters of the storm damaged the location of Trophy Tackle beyond repair. Rather then give up Trophy Tackle quickly rebuilt their business in a new location on Long Island. This new retail space is over 4000 square feet and may be the largest offshore and inshore outfitter in the north east. The new address is 434 Rutgers Road, West Babylon, New York 11704.

Potential World Record Yellowfin Tuna caught aboard The Excel World Record Yellowfin?
A yellowfin tuna caught by John Petruescu in Mexican waters aboard the San Diego-based Excel is expected by the crew to become the largest yellowfin ever landed on rod and reel.
