Sea robin

Hands down the most glamorous, prestigious, hardest fighting gamefish that swims in the northwest Atlantic.

“Dude, you wouldn’t believe what I caught the other day” “A tuna?” “No, a sea robin”

Bergall

New York/New Jersey slang for a cunner, a small, wrasse-like fish typically found from Newfoundland to North Carolina. The bane of any bottom fisherman’s existence. The little ones are notorious bait stealers, but atleast they’re fun when nothing else is biting

“Dude, those fucking bergalls wouldn’t leave us alone the other day. Bastards chewed up $20 worth of expensive bloodworms”

Ling

New York/New Jersey slang for the red hake, a small bottom dwelling fish in the cod family. They fight like a wet sock but they’re not picky eaters and they’re some of the best eating fish in the ocean

“John, this fish piccata is amazing, is this cod?” “No, it’s ling”

Fortune wheel

The best fucking Chinese restaurant on Long Island. Kind of a hidden gem. The carpet hasn’t been changed since the 90’s, there’s one of those little light up fountain decorations at the front, and the menu is in Cantonese and English, so you know the food’s gonna slap

“Have you ever eaten at fortune wheel?” “Hell yeah, their food’s fire. Also, if you haven’t had their unlimited dim sum, that should be on your bucket list”

Chocolate Kenny

When a white person falls for a black person

“Did you see George’s new girlfriend?” “The black girl, yeah. Bro took a chocolate Kenny”
