Shinnecock Bay/Inlet/Ocean

The bass bite at the bridge and inlet has been good for the clam chummers. Both tides have produced with fish to 30lbs. Drifting the inlet with live baits or clam has been working too.  The fluke bite remains decent in the western bay but the ocean bite has finally started east of the inlet. The bay bite has been in the skinny water with small bucktails doing most of the damage.  Seabass have been cooperating on the Shinnecock reef and local wrecks along with some ling mixing in. The cocktail blues are in and around the inlet most mornings and evenings and being caught on ava jigs/tube.

 

 Peconic Bay

 The porgy bite remains strong. Anchor up with some clam chum and baits for the best action. Robins island area is a good place to start. Some bluefish on the troll around Jessups.  

 

 Surf/Shore bound/Canal

 The bass are cooperating at the bridge and inlet for the clam dunkers. Fish to 20lbs have come back to the shop. Bucktails have had some decent results in the inlet on the night tides. Blues to 17lbs have been caught off the west jetty on bucktails and diamond jigs. The canal has fluke on spearing and some cocktail blues at the southern end and porgies at the northern end on worm baits. The ocean beaches are producing a few fish here and there with no real consistency on both baits and lures.

 

Offshore 

The blue sharks dominated the bite this past week for those targeting the thresher and makos. Makos out of the Shinnecock area were few and far between. Sharkers have spotted schoolie size bluefin schools while drifting the inshore waters. Find some life and drag some squid bars around and try your luck, you never know what you may find. Out at the canyons the water is looking good with a nice temp. break.

SHINNECOCK PECONIC REPORTS

Shinnecock Bay/Inlet/Ocean The fluke bite has continued to improve with many anglers taking their limits. Spearing squid combos work well but bucktailing in the skinny water has been taking the larger fish. Most fish have been coming from areas west of the bridge. The ocean fluke bite has yet to materialize although conditions haven't been ideal to venture out and scout either. Bass have been cooperating with the clam chummers at the bridge and inlet, the out going tides have been the better bite. Big blues are on nthe bottom of the inlet with 3-5lbers moving throughout the bay. Peconic Bay Best bet is the porgies with clam chum and baits around Robin's Island. The bay is holding a lot of bunker, find them and you'll have fun with plenty of keeper bass. Blues are moving about, drag an umbrella rig and you'll be rewarded. Surf/Shore bound/Canal The canal has been producing quite a few fluke with keeper mixing in. Ponquogue bridge has bass in the shadows at night and the inlet continues to see bass fall to bucktails. The back bay areas of both Shinnecock and Peconic are hold quite a few bass and are falling for both bait and swimming plugs.
