pequa11 Posted October 1 Report Share Posted October 1 Thank you jps1010 !! so often posts and queries like mine go totally unanswered. I will post conditions after each journey. I don't expect to catch much but at least I can return the favor. jps1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfrat59 Posted October 1 Report Share Posted October 1 Water was clean and nice on the S shore this morning, only the slack high presented a short lived bite for me though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig It Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Hit the south shore front and bay side today. Few small birds diving, small bait around, no bites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WLIStless Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Went out in west sound on kayak both sat and sun afternoon into dark. Water was...not clean. In fact, what I thought was leaves/weeds on surface was flows of lanternflys and flying ants/termites that likely launched because of the moon. It was like this 1.5 miles out. I managed a 5 inch striper, 1 oyster toad, and a couple of short strikes on a 6 inch plug that I think were just schoolies. Hopefully a few days without rain and the king tide current will let things clean up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pequa11 Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Practiced casting at a SE Nassau ocean beach this morning. (I did actually put lures on the line to make it realistic.) Due to erosion my beach was almost unrecognizeable. No weed, no sweep, water clean and one hit in two hours around the high tide. Watched three or more dolphins feeding out at the bar. Just two other guys fishing on the entire stretch. Absolutely gorgeous morning, sandals, shorts and a tee shirt. Water had to be in low 70s.

LowEnd Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 I came down with a bug this past weekend but got out Sunday morning for a bit. Water was brownish and I was picking up weed on the BT. Top water was fine with poppers and surface swimmers. Not a tap. Left after realizing I’m a nut job and should of stayed in bed. Glad I went anyway.

pequa11 Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 all the Christmas tree skeletons laying there now, which I believe came from further east as I don't think my town does that anymore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WLIStless Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 Went out last night 930-1030 very inshore on kayak. 7 schoolies/rats and one school bully. The bully was short, only like 25 inches, but 2x the size of any fish of comparable length and had lice. I'm so far west in the sound it was a bit surprising to see what looked like a migrating fish already. Also, they were on smaller bait. Moving from a 4" to 6" swim shad of the same color and style stopped the bite. Antek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Deserteagle778 Posted October 5 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 5 (edited) This past week has been nothing more short of being at the right place at the right time. I had unbelievable luck this fall and it's early! Edited October 5 by Deserteagle778 LoneCaster, Richizzzle, bdowning and 10 others 7 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowEnd Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Awesome job Deserteagle! Walked 2 miles of beech this am. to and fro this morning. Water looked awesome, was picking up some eel grass but it was very fishable. Great conditions, but only landed 3 fluke. Not what I was looking for.

Antek Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 (edited) I’ve apparently been at the wrong place/wrong time. Ventured out to the SS couple times over the last week late nights. Throwing bucktails, bottles, and minnows in the surf and inlet. A few taps but no hook ups. Guy next to me one night caught a one-off 30lb bass on a bottle, but otherwise not a lot of catching going on. I will say that after marching through the mosquito infested dunes of the SS, I’ll never complain about the bugs in the Sound again lol. Feel like I need to get tested for malaria or yellow fever. Went out to one of my usual Far WLIS spots earlier today at high water. Very little bait visible since the storms the other week — no bird action and the big blues and decent schoolies that were around then seem to have all left to wherever the bait went. My magdarter was getting tapped aggressively and I was hoping that some cocktail blues were in. Instead, I hooked up into the smallest bass I’ve ever caught. This guy was barely bigger than the freaking MD: Edited October 7 by Antek LoneCaster and Richizzzle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowEnd Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Broke the skunk fest this morning, nothing big but had some action. Landed 7 bass and one blue fish all around 24”. Bite lasted for an hour then it shut off. Antek, LoneCaster and Deserteagle778 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotrings Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 (edited) took the e-bike out for a cruise with no rod yesterday. Was looking for bait and structure on the open beach. Was way out in no-mans land on the SS and found this poor slob. She was a fine fish I am sure. Edited October 7 by gotrings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
