“Each species of fish was delayed for weeks,” said David Catalano, co-owner of Harbor Island Bait and Tackle in Mamaroneck. “Now, striped bass and fluke are the main targets and they’re a lot more consistent.”
Freddy Guitard of Mamaroneck took his son Brandon out last Saturday morning and they caught a decent striper off Captain’s Island with a chunk of bunker on the hook. They released it because it didn’t meet the Department of Conservation’s size requirement, but the middle schooler was happy as a clam.
Night fishing for stripers is proving more fruitful. “The day bite is a little slower than the night, so our customers are going out right after sunset,” said David, who also suggests going out during the changing tide.
There is activity closer to shore as well. The pier at Playland is reeling in plenty of fishermen, who are having luck with porgies, stripers, fluke, and bluefish. Pick up a rod and reel with some bait and head on over.
