DAN HENDERSON loves sitting on the patio of his new waterfront condominium in the Spencer Estates neighborhood of the Bronx. When guests come, he points out all the landmarks around Eastchester Bay, from Pelham Bay Park and City Island down around to the Throgs Neck Bridge.

When he is alone gazing out over the bay, he isn't wondering how this "big Throgs Neck boy," as he describes himself, landed in such a beautiful spot. He's wondering, he said, "where are the striped bass hiding so when I go out tomorrow I will be able to find them?"

The life-long fisherman and boat owner, who is a retired carpenter, and his wife, Judith, a retired school secretary, are among many newcomers to a cluster of condo complexes dotting the shore in Spencer Estates, a small enclave dominated by one- and two-family homes nestled between Pelham Bay Park and the Country Club section.
