Surf Fishing in Long Island, NY 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Hi guys,

I got a chance to finally sample the Fall Run of striped bass this week. First bass of the 2008 Fall of (Hopefully,) Fun!

I caught this striper on a jetty fishing with live bait (eel).

Nice striper!

when you fish long island do you head way out towards montauk?
Or do you fish closer to the city?

I have fished City Island many many times and did ok off of the rocks, but never landed a striper bigger then 20" there
I always wanted to try long island shore fishing.


Heres to a fun fall run for you!

Believe it or not, I have yet to visit the "Mecca of surf casting" (i.e., Montauk). I usually don't have the time to commit an entire weekend out there (it's about a 2 hr drive from me).

However, I've learned many of the nuances of my "local" spots (30min east or west of Port Jefferson) such that I catch my fair share of nice fish.

That night, my friend caught this guy:




Josh, come out- I'll try to get you on some big stripers. ;)

Nice!

I am hoping to head out there sometime this upcoming year. Hopefully late spring next year.

My brother lives in Albany and I havent seen my little nephew in a while. Its not that far of a drive from there to the city.

There are a few species in that area I want to hammer out.
Chain Pickerel, red breasted sunfish, White catfish. and then all the salties to chase.
SO many trips I want to take. lol

Cool. I take it you have to do it at night? Also what kind of rig do you use for fishing with live eels?

Nice bass, very encouraging to see some stripers around. Hopefully thats the first of many more.
