Blaise from Duffy’s Bait and Tackle in Glenwood Landing reports bottom fishing really exploded since the storm past with great porgy and sea bass fishing around buoy 28 C and 11 B as well as from all the beaches, especially Prybil and Tappen Beaches. Worms and clams, it doesn’t matter as the scup are hungry and chewing up anything sent down to them. Black sea bass has also lit up with many quality keepers mixing in with lots of shorts. Striped bass are still a bit picky, but that should change as soon as the water cools down a bit. Blues and snappers are still taking space inside the harbor and along the beaches with metal jigs and poppers catching mom, dad and junior. Green crabs are in stock for Sunday’s blackfish debut.

Blaise from Duffy’s Bait and Tackle in Glenwood Landing reports the porgies were at all the beaches until this current storm hit. It remains to be seen if the scup have moved off into deeper water or if they will stick around in the shallows. Snappers kept the docks and piers alive with action and also leaves us with a big if. Striped bass, fluke and bluefish should all be situated for the fall run once the storm passes and we will see what is going on with the baitfish.
