Dropshot Gulp Swimming Mullets in Pearl White. 10" tag end (this is very important that it is short like that), 1oz weight, 1/0 worm hook. This is my go to in the bay. Last trip i caught over 40 spotties and 10 halibut in a 4 hr session. Just work it real slow along the bottom, no jerking or anything else needed, just reel slow. I also usually cast or troll a kkrockadile and get me some mackerel to soak on my live bait rod (for halibut) while I'm working the Gulp.
There is a nice beach to launch from at Shelter Island, from there I like to fish the pillars on the military side. There is a sharp drop off along those pillars that hold a lot of bass, halibut and sculpin. Drop off goes from the 6-8ft rang to around 40'. Fish that and you'll get them...
