Great South Bay Fishing Charters

Going fishing on the Great South Bay in January isn’t really possible since it’s very cold outside. You’ll be better off staying cozied up at home and waiting for better fishing conditions.

Chances are, the temperatures are still not rising, so fishing is on hold. If by any chance you catch a good sunny day in February, use it to target Cod, because they’re very active this time of year.

Even though the spring is slowly creeping in and days are getting warmer and longer, fish are still not that interested in what you have to offer. The only exception is Cod, which doesn’t seem to mind frigid waters.

The first couple of months were slow on the fishing front, but come April, and everything changes significantly. The Flounder season is open and Stripers are out and about, as well as the cold-resistant Cod.

The spring is in full swing, which is good news for anglers and the fish. You’ll find a lot of hungry Black Drum on your line, as well as some premium Striped Bass and Flounder. You might even stumble upon a Shark or two.

There’s a lot to look forward to in June, both within the Great South Bay and beyond. In the lagoon, Bluefish, Stripers, Flounder, and Black Drum are all there for the taking, and in the ocean, you can find gorgeous Bluefin Tuna.

This is easily one of the best fishing months on the Great South Bay. Whether you’re in the mood for some Shark action or fishing for Black Seabass, Bluefish, Flounder, and Striped Bass, you’ve come to the right place.

The Scup season is open, so this beautiful species joins the already long line of possible catches. The waters are warm, the weather is gorgeous, and anything from Bluefish in the bay to Tuna in the ocean is biting.

As the weather takes a turn, so does the fishing. Every day it gets a bit colder on the bay, but there are still active species for you to chase. Black Seabass, Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Tautog are all on the menu.

It’s getting increasingly more difficult to go fishing even in the calm waters of the Great South Bay because it’s very cold outside. If you brave the late fall weather, you’ll be rewarded with very good Striped Bass and Tautog bite.

If you’re out in the water in December, you’re a champion! For some anglers, passion for the sport beats the cold, and on a mild day, they can enjoy solid bottom fishing for Cod, Tautog, and Black Seabass.
