2015 Long Island Fishing Reports Thread

Nice report. Have been fishing SS and out east for the last few weeks. Nothing real big. A few bass to mid teens on moon tides. Very very slow season.

Ocean side this morning 2:00 to 8:00.
Had a great time, lost a nice bass on a 7" weighted Tsunami eel around 3:45, lost another bass around 4:15 on a small metal lip (I am in serious mid-season form).
Then Finally landed some schoolies up to around 28 inches.
Ended up with 8 (3 on a Waverer, 2 on Super Strike Popper, 1 on Super Strike darter, a floating needle and white Hogy.
Lots of action (mostly top water),easily lost 5 fish and missed a bunch of hits. All action was in two spots and all of it was in WHITE WATER.
Wish I would have caught the first fish, but was a adrenalin rush with the strong run.

Last week it was all blues (5), this week it was the bass in the white water.
Lots of fun both weeks.
Last week I fell in backwards, this week I fell in forwards.....its treacherous.....and I'm clumsy.
Next week should be interesting....hopefully its not no fish and no falling.

Nice going sounds fantastic. Almost a dream compared to NJ.

Stay tuned folks....the next episode of Monty's Whitewater adventures might have Monty, JBarbosa, and I out there in wetsuits looking to see if there are any great white sharks cruising beyond the white water breakers of the south shore.

You put in a lot of weekends fishing different water, pal.
More effort than most would want to...and it finally paid off.....
Great stories and report....glad to hear ya found some fish....

You guys want to wet suit it go to cuttyhunk in august. More rocks than you can walk on for the rest of your lives. The bite has dropped out there from what it used to be. The tackle shop owner in the video says it's the bunker migration and fish are moving differently. Thinking about the migration and how the fish move through the canal that doesn't make sense. They have to pass the island every spring and fall. I haven't been there in about 5 or 6 years. I do remember some good times about 10 years ago. 20-30 fish a night high teens and better. This SJ video gives you a little flavor. enjoy.

btw monty nice reports. There are a few fish around here and there. I have been fishing some of the inlets on the right tides. Really have to try to plan to avoid the weed. Good work on your part though.

I've ruined two phones falling in.

Think of it this way at least this time of year it probably felt great!

Good job. I have slacked off because of the weed in the surf. Some friends are doing well in the rips at night out east.
