Showcasing their creative talents they will teach festival attendees how to prepare and enjoy sea robins. The Culinary Studio of Huntington will play host to the visiting chefs from NYC. The fishing tournament will have separate divisions for both adults and children to ensure a fun time for all. There will be raffle prizes and live music from hot indie band Lewd Buddha.
