Out at Fishing East Coast Bait and Tackle, reports from the western Sound remain steady. Areas like Little Neck, Manhasset, and Hempstead Harbor are producing stripers into the teen class. Sandworms and bloodworms fished along the bottom are working well, while swimming plugs fished during higher stages of the tide in the back harbor areas are producing consistent action.

Mike at Fishing East Coast Bait and Tackle in Little Neck reports terrific bass fishing inside Little Neck Bay with just about every technique catching bass including bunker chunks and bloodworms. The fishing shows no sign of slowing up as shore bound anglers and boatmen are catching equally as well. There has been very little interest in porgy fishing due to the abundance of stripers.
