LI fishing: NY fishing reports for July 2011

Important when registering on our site -- use an active email address so you can activate your account to be able to post.

Please post fishing reports here.......as little or as much detail as you want to give.

Please note: NO SPOT BURNING! Posts burning spots will be Edited or DELETED!
Some veteran fishermen have put in years developing and learning about certain spots.Some of these spots can only handle a few guys at a time. We are losing enough access as it is, due to the unfortunate behavior of a few selfish people. No sense in making it worse.

For some areas, it would be wiser to say:
OutFront (Ocean) OR -- OutBack (Bay) -- if you feel too many people will figure out what you are talking about. "Spot burning" also could involve mentioning something specific only to that area. If you do this, your post may be edited, or deleted. Remember that thousands of people could potentially read these posts. You don't want to be fishing next to ALL of them at the same time!


IF you are fishing an area that is NOT residential, being vague is less critical. For example, it's acceptable to say (Any)Park, or (Any)Bay, or mention a specific state park that has loads of parking and can handle the crowds.


If you are unclear on this concept, ask yourself:


If I name this place on the internet, will it be too crowded for me to enjoy tomorrow when people hear I got 30 fish here today?


If the answer is "Yes", then you should probably not be so specific.

Late report,fished Sat out of FI, there were tons of bunker. We dropped a few in the livewell, were out there from 5-8a. 3 bass to 39lbs, once we got away from the bigger schools and started fishing the edges we were into fish. It was great!

My cousins and I put a hurting on the bass yesterday. Fished all day in the rain, W of Moriches. Lots of bunker with nothing on them, but fuirther out there were big bass and blues. Lost a lot due to bite offs. Still managed 16 bass to 41#, kept 3 to 25#. About 2 dozen angry big monster blues as well. Fantastic day on the water.

On vacation this week. Yesterday on the water at 4am, netted bunker about 2 miles off by 4:15, first hookup by 4:20, 30lb bass. Got into it with 4 more bass to 27lbs, a few bluefish, and one thresher that almost spooled us! It must have been BIG, maybe 300+ lbs. We really weren't prepared for it but will be next time. It was foggy as heck, Be careful out there fellas!

Today same time frame, only one 16lb bass and a few insanely big bluefish. Very foggy as well.

[crosseyedbass]

Out on the bunker pods today, right before first light. Huge pods in front of FI inlet, not too many bass under, More sharks than bass. 2 stripers to 32#, snag and drop, sitting the bunker on the bottom.
