Long Island Sound - Saltwater Fishing Report
The Kingfisher took out the Kijak group Sunday to Montauk for fluke. Conditions were really tough with the wind against the tide and 3 to 6 footers, but we still managed to pull in 12 keepers with the two biggest tipping the scales at 8+ pounds. If you’re fluking try bumping the motors against the wind to help give yourself a drift or pick up a drift sock. It makes a huge difference with wind against the tide conditions. We will be doing the rest of our fluking along the CT and RI shoreline. Look for them on the north and south side of Fisher’s Island as well as Misquamicut. Stonington up to Newport has had a big run of squid and the fluke are sure to be right on there tentacles. Let’s not forget about the stripers, they are there as well. From The Gut and Race to Montauk stripers have been moving in, in big schools, the key is to be there at the right time and day and you’ll be into them. This weeks, long’ awaited warm weather should turn things on even more. Look for more frequent blitzes showing up in the next week or so. This weekend the Kingfisher will be running full day striper trips with groups on sat., and sun.
