Jamaica Bay


Recommended Posts

J-Bay is a terrific fishery that's tailor made for kayak fishing. The further you paddle out into the bay the shallower it gets and the better for kayaks. The area in the middle is called the 'Pumpkin Patch' and its full of islands, sand bars, etc. There's no other place, in the region, I'd rather fish in May. I've had some extroidary trips in the middle of the day there. I've never fished there without catching fish.

 

All that shallow water makes it very good for fly fishing. As to lures the TnW works really well. A pink one fished near the drop offs produces weakfish. I've always had great success with Megabait JB-110s, Sluggos and plastics. Also Jumpin Minnows are often deadly.
