Blaise from Duffy’s Bait and Tackle in Glenwood Landing reports all the beaches are producing good porgy fishing as well as inside the harbor and in the Sound. Buoy 28 C and Oyster Bay are producing very good scup fishing on worms and clams. The nighttime striped bass bite has been fair to good inside Hempstead Harbor and inside Manhasset Bay with live eels doing the trick. Fluke continues to be taken at Matinecock Point on bucktails tipped with squid and spearing. Snapper fishing has been very good at all the docks.
