FISH REPORT - Sept 3
INSHORE
Stripers
Striper fishing remaining the most consistent at the SW Ledge trolling tubes and umbrellas during the day and the nite eel bite has also been good. South shore Pt Judith to Watch Hill all with some top water and trolling action. Smaller fish in the back ponds, larger bass at night in the breachways.
Cod
Some anglers picking up cod as close as the Windmills, however Cox's seems to be the best. Jigs and clams. There may be some bluefin around the Cox's area along with some Mahi Mahi.
Seabass & Scup
Sept 1 the limit increased to 7 fish per person and appear to have moved to much deeper waters. Hooter still holding some fish however, Windmills and East Grounds will be better locations. There are
still small fish along the south shore but not as consistent as the Island.
FLUKE
Block is about the best, it was a challenging year to say the least. East Grounds and Windmills are places anglers are chatting about.
OFFSHORE
Shark
Mud Hole, Cox's, Butterfish Hole, Gully have been sharking hot spots, makos, blues and threshers.
TUNA
Since Henri the tuna fishing hasn't really pulled together. Cox's and the Gully seem to best starting grounds.
Canyons
West Atlantis was still the best sword, big eye and large yellows canyon. Weather has permitted any trips. Shipping Lanes to just North of the Tales was also last good yellowfin grounds, however it has been
over a week. Many eager anglers so as soon as mother nature gives a break
people will be looking. Temp charts going to be a necessity.
