Long Island Stripers Surfcasting

Go fishing with your feet firm on the ground. Long Island Stripers Surfcasting offers a different kind of chasing the tails, available from mid-April all the way till mid-December. Explore the beaches of Riverhead, NY with Captain Alfred, who’s been fishing for over 34 years. He got his experience in the waters of the Eastern Long Island and has been guiding other people for over 5 years now.

Capt. Alfred caters to anglers of all skill levels, from beginners to hardcore ones. There’s even a 90-minute casting lesson you can take if you want to get more familiar with the equipment and learn basic moves.

Unlike most fishing trips, you can take this adventure without worrying about seasickness. There’s no boat and you’ll spend the whole time safe on the beach. Take all the space you need and move around. To make sure he’s fully dedicated to you, Capt. Alfred limits only 2 guests per trip.

Your main target is Striped Bass, but you can also catch Bluefish and Weakfish. You’ll mostly combine spinning with light tackle. The Captain lets you keep the catch within legal limits and it’s encouraged to release larger slot fish.

All COVID precautions will be required. Customers can bring their own gear but rods/reels/lures can be provided. Chest waders aren’t supplied but are generally necessary. You’ll need a fishing license, for which you can apply online for free.

Let Long Island Stripers Surfcasting take you to ocean beaches, back bays, and creeks, and catch your next trophy!

I decided to start guiding to supplement my income but quickly found out how rewarding it was to share my knowledge with new or lesser experienced fishermen or women. My passion for fishing centers around the primary species that I target, the Striped Bass. Fishing for striped bass during the heat of the season can consume me like nothing else. It's a majestic fish.
