Long Island, Metro NY - East End Fishing Reports
Long Island, Metro Video Fishing Forecast December 5, 2024
This week, we report to you from the dealer show floor room at the Folsom Show in Atlantic City. Be sure to tune into this week’s video for a special offer from the Tsunami folks at Folsom as well. Last week, we continued with the windy trend, but we did get reports of tog in the 70 to 90-foot range on the east end of the island, as well as activity on the South Shore reefs. Sea bass were deeper on the south shore but remained shallower in Montauk. Stripers were thinning out on the east end, but on the west end, we are still seeing a solid jig bite. Some bluefin tuna are popping up on the south side of the island as well. Squid are setting up in a few of the North Shore harbors, too.

East End Fishing Reports
Matt Broderick-East End Highlights

We’re now in the first week of December and while winter is slowly taking its grip on the Northeast, we still have some season left for stripers, tog, sea bass and cod. It was a windy holiday week but in the fishable gaps, shore and boat anglers found some stripers again along the South Shore of the island. The western portion of the island is certainly seeing the better action right now but I did get a couple of reports from Montauk during the past week on bass from both the shore and boat, confirming that fish are still out that way. Those jigging the western end and down the Jersey Shore are seeing more consistent results with stripers. Bottom fishing has been a chore with the wind during the past week but when boats have been able to situate over wrecks and rocky bottoms, especially off Montauk, Block Island and the wrecks off the South Shore of Long Island. Sea bass are shallower, near Block in Montauk but deeper on the South Shore. Some big sea bass catches are being reported. A few decent codfish are in the mix, too. Remember, the lakes and ponds around the island are open and clear of weed, which makes for some great opportunity to fish them this time of the year. Especially if they were recently stocked with trout in November.
