Long Island South Shore Fishing Report

partly cloudy on the 26th, perfect temp. hit the bay with the kayak this time, just chillin’ and casting. caught a few snapper blues, nothing big but fun to catch. just enjoying the peace and quiet out there, always a good day when you’re fishing!

may 23rd was kinda drizzly, not ideal but we gave it a shot. went for some light surf casting, only caught small stuff unfortunately. but hey, it’s fishing right? could feel the fish were hiding though, need to try again when it’s nice out! fingers crossed!

so sunny on the 20th! went to Babylon with my buddy, started early. used live bait, had a blast with the stripers. had to deal with some wind but who cares, we landed a couple nice ones! i think one was close to 6lbs. perfect weather for fishing, feeling great!

a little rainy on the 13th, but I went out to my usual spot. used a squid rig because why not? caught 3 decent size porgies, maybe 2-3lbs each. couldn’t stay too long, but it was calm between showers, and oh, the sunset was gorgeous! worth getting wet!

man it poured on may 4th! was skeptical but we went anyway. rain jackets on, casted from the shore with a spinner. surprisingly caught a nice bluefish, maybe 5lbs! it was wild out there, wet but worth it. sometimes the rain makes it more fun! bring on the next trip!
