Big bass chase bunker schools in central Long Island Sound, bluefish dominate the south shore surf, and weakfish make a showing with keeper fluke in the back bay channels.
The blackfish bite holds strong in the Sound and the NY Bight, bluefin crash through bait schools near shore and offshore wreck trips yield a mixed bag of cod, sea bass and more.
Insane striper blitzes continue along the entire south shore, and double-digit tautog are caught from Brooklyn to Orient.
Striped bass have inundated south shore beaches from east to west, albies blitz in the eastern Sound and tautog fishing is good off the north fork and the west end.
Stripers continue to push west around Montauk Point, the eastern Sound gives up quality tautog, and more sand eels move in along south shore beaches.
