This week we touch upon a tragic capsizing at Fire Island Inlet and remind anglers to stay safe as another windy stretch keeps most boats docked. The beach bite remains the best option, with heavy sand eel action fueling steady striper catches from the east end to the west end, plus strong tog reports on the North Shore. We preview the new digital edition of The Fisherman, Capt. Gillen’s tease on 70 years, Okuma tog tips, and Jenni’s upcoming Open Boat. Upcoming events include the Steiger Craft Open House, the Lindenhurst Fall Fishing Flea Market, and Tres Palms’ bass tournament. We also check in on Dreamboat and Coastal Kayak Clash standings.
