Craig from WeGo Bait and Tackle in Southold reports the shop is open and are carrying all your bait needs as well as tackle. Fish wise, Craig reports bunker and squid continue to spill into the bay, especially towards Flanders Bay which is quite common this time of year. A few small stripers are being taken at the tip of the Peconic River with poppers and deep diving plugs duping the majority of fish. With porgy season debuting in a couple of weeks, interest will be storming with the annual spring run of sea scup along with shots at weakfish.

Nick from WeGo Bait and Tackle up on the North Fork told me a few scattered schoolie report came in from the Peconic creeks last week. Smaller swimming plugs were the best option for these early season fish. Some shore tog reports also made their way in from the Trumans Beach area. Those fish were caught on green crabs.

Craig from WeGo Bait and Tackle in Southold reports the shop is open and are carrying all your bait needs as well as tackle. Craig said there are some bunker in the bay, which means the bass aren’t too far away which bodes well for next week’s bass opener. Due to the relentless winds this past week, no one went looking for blackfish until this Sunday morning when a few bushels of green crabs went out the door, however no one reported back.
