Hi, Go to Captree State Park..  Past jones beach/Robert Moses, they have two piers for fishing and crabbing-cage style traps work better here

Parking fee.. think its about 8 or 9 bucks.. nice place..
... think they still have a Bait and takle shop --check before you go
small beach area,
place to eat (expensive-- to me anyway)
Can barbacue on the sand (small public grills in the dunes) near the smaller pier.
Bathrooms- out door shower
and charter fishing boats..
PS.. gotta get there early or all the good spots will be taken...

Have fun
