Shinnecock Bay/Inlet/Ocean
The inlet is alive with bass and blues. Live baits have been working best for the keeper sized fish but fresh bunker chunks and clam have seen there fair share of also. Weighed in a 42lb bass this week caught in the inlet on a drifted live bunker by Chris Digaetano. Clam chummers at the Ponquogue bridge have had some larger bass this week with fish to 25lbs reported. The fluke bite in both the ocean and bay have been good but the keeper to short ratio is very low. The huge live killies we stock will increase your odds of a trophy keeper fluke. Shinnecock bay is loaded with cocktail blues, look for the busting fish or diving birds.
Peconic Bay
Fluke are at Jessup's and around Robin's Island, squid spearing combos are working well. Blues are all over the bay. Porgies, huge porgies, are at Roger's Rock for those soaking some chum and using clam or worm baits. Good reports of blowfish have come back from the Gardner's bay area.
Shorebound/Surf
The Shinnecock canal has seen some decent fluke action this week, we weighed in a 4lber on Sat, along with blues on tins at dawn and dusk and bass to 25lbs in the dark on live bait primarily. The porgies are showing on the north end of the canal as well. The blowfish have moved out into the bays. The areas around Indian Island continue to see both bass and blues at dawn and dusk. The Shinnecock inlet is seeing a great bite on bass this week for those dunking fresh clam or bunker chunks, bucktails and dark swimming plugs have done some damage on them as well in the dark. The blues are on the feed in the inlet as well so protect those live baits. The Ponquogue bridge is holding some nice bass in the dark on both clam and live baits. The beaches to the east of the inlet are showing some life for those throwing bait, and tins have seen a few blues. The back bays are still producing some bass and blues.
