Alright, listen up. Captain Tony here with your weekly rundown of what's happening in our waters.
It's the time of year we live for. I've been talking to my guys, the old-timers and the young guns, from the piers in Brooklyn to the channels in the Bronx. The consensus is clear: the bite is on. The water's cooling down, the bait is thick, and the fish are hungry. It's a beautiful thing.
Lower Harbor
We're talking Porgies, Albies, Sea Bass in good numbers. You gotta work for them, but they're there. The go-to baits have been Jigs, Bucktail, Plugs. The key is to fish the rips and deeper water during the tidal swings.
Upper Harbor
We're talking Porgies, Albies, Sea Bass in good numbers. You gotta work for them, but they're there. The go-to baits have been Jigs, Bucktail, Plugs. The key is to fish the rips and deeper water during the tidal swings.
Hudson River Zone
We're talking Porgies, Albies, Sea Bass in good numbers. You gotta work for them, but they're there. The go-to baits have been Jigs, Bucktail, Plugs. The key is to fish the rips and deeper water during the tidal swings.
The Arsenal
What's in the arsenal? Peanut bunker, Live eels, Topwater plugs are getting the job done. For the blues, topwater plugs are getting the job done, and white Deceiver flies are a good bet for the fly-rodders.
The 7-Day Forecast
The weather looks stable for the next week, which should keep the fish feeding. I expect the bite to only get better as we get deeper into the fall. This is the time of year when the big fish start to show up.
