We wanted to let you know that we will be having our BIG END OF THE SEASON SALE at the tackle shop this weekend. Rods, Reels, Waders and Tackle- all for great prices! Come see us and see what we have available- Saturday through Monday!
Fishing continues to be steady heading into Columbus Day Weekend. Big Bass have been caught in the Harbor, off of the beaches at night and even from Great Point. Albies continue to entice people from beach and are stacking up in town and to Great Point Rip in the Boat. Lastly, Bluefish are still around in fair numbers and a 15lb fish was reported being caught in the Rip at Great Point. Get out there and enjoy.
Enjoy the Scallop and Cranberry season and we look forward to seeing you this weekend!
Fishing Map - Click on the blue markers below to view the location names for each fishing spot.
This map is intended to help you orient yourself around the island. Below are 20 of the standard access points that people use to fish the shores of the island.
It is important to know that the beauty of an island though, is that there are fish all around, should you be willing to look. We also believe that while there
is a great camaraderie to be surrounded by 10 of your best friends, all with rods bent, that there is a subtle joy to catching a fish in a spot all your own.
I always recommend to people to find a beach they like and pick a direction to walk casting the whole way down. If you are fishing for Bluefish, cast as far as you
can perpendicular to the beach, if you are casting for Striped Bass, cast 45 degrees in the direction you are walking as Bass are closer to shore. If you get to a
point in the beach, a break in the surf, or water that just looks different, this is likely where fish are residing. Stop and cast ten times to test the water. Tight lines!
