Knots To Know • 6/1/25 Local Fishing Updates • Get Your Free Saltwater Registry • Big Blues In Patchogue
We are starting to hear more reports of bluefish at the local docks. Bluefish have also appeared around the bays and inlets. People are still catching bluefish at Smith Point County Park  and Cupsogue Beach County Park off the beach. Using a diamond jig has been doing very well. Super strike poppers have been very effective . For the Local Fisherman , all docks have been seeing these "yelled eyed devils "roaming around. Chunking with Bunker or Mackerel and popping plugs have been the most effective.

Bluefish continue to be the story this past week with good catches of quality size choppers being caught all along the south shore inlets and bays. Whether fishing from shore, off the Local Docks or out in a boat, anglers targeting Bluefish have been successful.

Porgy fishing is a great way to introduce kids to fishing. Porgy fishing (also know as Scup) offers lots of action to keep them interested while learning basic angling skills.

Weakfish reports have been coming in from the Peconics and Great South Bay.  Anglers fishing for porgies are getting an occasional tide-runner too.   We have also heard of anglers fishing the Smith Point County Park  and Ocean Beach area landing some quality fish. Try drifting a whole sandworm or pink rubber shad tipped with a squid strip or try using a basic double hook rig.  with either Sandworms or Squid Strip as another productive method.
