Big Stripers Hanging Around
Striped bass remain the headline attraction from Long Island to the Jersey Shore, with bluefish providing fast action along beaches and inlets. Fluke fishing is gaining momentum in bays, rivers, and nearshore waters, while sea bass fishing has improved significantly on offshore structure.

ABOVE: Big bass are holding tight to sparse bunker pods and hitting large topwater plugs as they move east in Long Island Sound.

What's happening today... The spring migration is at its absolute peak, transforming the waters surrounding this teardrop-shaped island into a world-class striper haven. We are seeing an incredibly healthy mix of fish, ranging from aggressive school-sized bass to true 40-plus-pound cow stripers. Because the island sits perfectly in the epicenter of the Atlantic migratory route, cooler ocean waters sustain this bite long after the shallow mainland estuaries have grown too warm. The fish are aggressively ambushing bait pushed up against the island's rocky shoreline, submerged ledges, and dynamic rips.

Stripers can be found from the Chesapeake all the way to Maine. The South Shore of Long Island is loaded with big bass, and theLong Island Sound is stacked with post-spawn fish moving in from both the Hudson and the Chesapeake. Bigger bass are pushing through Narragansett Bay, Buzzards Bay, the Cape Cod Canal, and Cape Cod Bay.
With the new moon ahead, next week looks like the biggest yet.
