loading . . . A Tenkara Angler in New York City Article by Jason Aptaker Growing up, I was introduced to fishing by my father, a retired New York City Police Officer. He was and still is, at the age of 84, a fisherman. We would get up at 4:00 AM and drive from our home in Staten Island, NY, to Montauk, Long Island. We would hop on a party boat and head out for some deep-sea fishing. Depending on the time of year, we would catch a variety of pelagic fish, such as fluke, flounder, porgies, blackfish, and seabass. What struck me about this type of fishing was that it felt like an 8-hour workday. https://tenkaraangler.com/2026/05/06/a-tenkara-angler-in-new-york-city/
