Got out for the afternoon out of Bay Shore on Monday. Not much for birds or action in the bay on my way outside. Broke the inlet around 1130am and there were two fleets, one just outside to the east and one west out by Gilgo. Decided to run west since that's were all the Charters were...

Me and my buddy got out Wednesday morning first light in search of Bass and Tog. I wanted to take advantage of the light winds and flat ocean so outside we went and headed east. Similar story so far for the FI inlet area this fall, some birds around but no real signs of surface action and no...

Took advantage of the light east wind and some sick leave and gave it a go Monday morning. Left the dock around 430 and headed SE out of FI. Some dolphin and seas turtles on our way out in about 160'. I set up on the Virginia and trolled south towards baccardi. 73-74 water Temps, nice...

Was able to get out this morning and enjoy the flat seas. Left the dock around 630 and got to the 10-15mile wrecks south of FI inlet around 730. Plenty of life, lots of seabass with an easy limit on jigs. Tons of mackerel on the wrecks, almost difficult to get through them to the target fish...

Got out early morning Thursday in search of weakfish. Came out of my marina in Bayshore and ran straight to west channel. Gave it about 30mins without a bite so decided to move to ocean beach with the fleet. Arrived to a parking lot of boats all jigging for weakfish. Managed a nice 20" and a...

Got out last Saturday and again yesterday for the top of the flood and beginning of the ebb in the Moses, FI inlet areas. Schoolie bass are now starting to make a showing along the rips and off sand bars. Been casting small soft plastics, swimming plugs and poppers. Took a ride outside to the...

Took the boat out for the first run this season. Left the dock around 1030 for the last of incoming and start of out. Ran to kismet, bars in front of coast guard station and then to the inlet. Water temp was mostly 47-48, casting soft plastics and top water. No bass, one sea robin. Jumped over...

hello all. i was wondering if someone could enlighten me on the wreck/bottom fishing nearshore in December off fire island. I'm usually out of the water by now but the weather has been mild and I was thinking of planning a trip to target sea bass, cod, tog and whatever else. Problem is I...

took a ride after work tuesday afternoon. flat ocean and ran straight out to 70ish feet where i have been catching over the last few weeks. Nada. No bird, no marks, no life. Used the binoculars and scanned in all directions but didn't see any birds. A very nice captain on the radio came...

Got another chance to enjoy the unbelievable weather on Monday and headed out with a friend first thing. Got several reports from friends that there were plenty of short bass being taken both east and west of the inlet in 60-80ft on umbrella rigs. I'm really not much of a trolling guy but...

Haven't been posting much over the last 2 weeks because the bass bite has been quite slow for me. I've been out several times, inside the bay/inlet and outside mainly east. I've had a few bass on bunker pods east but with the amount of bait in the water I think it's a miracle unless you really...

got out this morning in search of bass. Ran east out of fire island inlet. Strong nw wind made the conditions less than ideal for spotting blow ups. Ran in about 30ft to ocean beach, stopping every once and a while to cast on bunker etc. Found some sand eels being chewed up by blues just east of...

Took advantage of the break in crummy weather and ran to the 10 miles wrecks se of fire island inlet this morning. Target species was seabass but was also hoping for triggers and bonito. Spent some time at the Dodger, Reggie and Esso Barges. Same as last week, no keeper sebass, lots of very...

Left the dock this morning around 545 for some first light weakfishing. Started the day in West channel. Slow pick of mostly shorts and the boat traffic picked up a lot around 7. Made a move over by kismet reef and we were rewarded with 3 nice keepers for a limit. Pink soft jerkbaits produced...

ran out of fire island inlet early Sunday am for the 12-15 mile wrecks in search of some seabass. Stopped at west channel on our way out to jig for weakfish. Couple small ones and we decided to keep running while it was still early. NOAA forecast was off again, dont know how they just keep...

fished the outgoing at stradford shoal this afternoon from 330-730. Plenty of blues, mostly 1-5lb size. Some schoolie bass to 26" in the mix if you could get past the blues. No other species, porgie, sea bass etc. About 25 private boats and 4 or 5 charters out there...was a zoo.

Took the boat out this morning from port jeff. Wind was much stiffer than forecasted so the ride out to the middle grounds was a bit nautical. (Is it me or does it seem that forecasting seems to get worse and worse. this year in particular has been terrible. i would say they are correct less...

fished the outgoing rips in the middle grounds this afternoon from about 4-8pm. Used only vertical/flutter jigs from 1.5-4oz. Lots of schoolie bass and blues, some decent sized fish in the mix to about 15lbs. Not much seabass or porgie. Fun trip with flat conditions.

been wanting to get out and do a blowfish-kingfish trip. Got the chance today out of captree for outgoing tide. Posted up in the usual places in sore thumb and chummed. Pretty slow but got some decent sized blowfish to bring home. No kings or really any other species. The reports of life I was...

hello everyone. Wondering if anyone would be willing to help me out finding some good spots to anchor and chum for blowfish and kingfish in the Patchogue-Moriches inlet bays? I'm used to fishing for them near Demo point and sore thumb. I've tried north of can 15 in moriches bay twice with no...
