Flybyme Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Small bass on the fly Sat and Sun. Mornings on SF Chartreuse baitfish patterns, Back Bay Western Sound area. Bunch of short fluke and birds on Friday. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trahsub Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Great morning on the SS, in the rain. Bait exploding everywhere and after a few cocktails, got my first Weakfish! I must have had one prior to the one I landed as the fight and size felt similar...figured it was a Blue and when I got a peak I was pumped. I'm on a good steak right now with blues, fluke, and Weakys. No bass but that's ok, hoping we get a solid Fall run.

Rough Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 It seems weakfish are making a comeback. This year is the best I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWitek Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) Decent late-spring weakfish bite in Great South Bay this year. More boats in the usual places than I've seen in years.

Bluefishmaster Posted August 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Woke up really early and grabbed 2 Pepsi with breakfast. Took a few Tri-Fin Whiptails with my light setup. I was casting and saw snapper blues following it. I removed the tail on the whiptail and put a fin-s as my friend said. I made a few cast and then finally a bump. Then another bump. Finally a 14" schoolie bass(released) on the fin-s with a tri-fin head reeling in slowly. I got more hits but I think they must be snapper blues as the fin-s was coming back with teeth marks. I switched back to the tri-fin whiptail but reeling in faster to see if anything else was in the area. BAM! I hooked into a 17" cocktail blue and took it home. I was casting until the rain came and then I left. On the way back, I saw someone hooked into a nice fish and was asking for help. So I helped, it turned out to be a cownose ray. What a fight! Making the world safe for bait, one bluefish at a time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianC86 Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 That was it for me this morning, a couple of small hits otherwise but couldn’t get anything to stick. Sacrificed a few jigs to the rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Robin Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 Lotta nervous bait pods out there, didn't see anyone hook up from shore or boat though. Near skunk, but got a short fluke lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishing-Addict Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Went out with the family and the younger ones to catch some snappers and we did very well. I think the older folks had more fun then the younger ones. They were tiny though and skinny hoping they get bigger so we catch some in the future. I could not come up with anything so...

baldadonis2002 Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Last year because of the warm water I was catching snappers and fluke into late September early October September Snappers on micro tackle are great for the kiddies.
