Shinnecock, Peconic and Offshore Report 9/26/10

Shinnecock Bay/Inlet/Ocean
The bass are here, just not blitzing like we would hope. Be patient, the season has been a great one to date and all indicators show the fall will be too. The bait is here, we just need the water temperatures to drop a little more and it should turn on. Bass are at the Ponquogue bridge for those clam chummers on the west side of the bridge and at the back of the inlet. Blues are mixed in as well. Drifting the Shinnecock inlet with live bait has produced bass to 25lbs. When weather permits and the winds lay down long enough to get out the inlet sea bass continue to fill limits. The reef and local wrecks have seen plenty of action including blackfish (released) which would indicate the opener on Oct. 1st should be a good one.

Peconic Bay
Plenty of porgies.

Beaches/Shore Bound
The beaches to the east and west of the Shinnecock Inlet have produced both bass and blues. Most bass are schoolies up to the keeper mark. Tins, needles and swimmers have all been producing fish. The inlet has had some action as well as the Ponquogue bridge. The baits of choice have been clams and sandworms. The canal is still holding some snappers.

Offshore
Reports indicate the bluefin bite at the compass rose has slowed considerably, although due to the weather not many boats have gotten out to give it a shot.
