SD Bay and Zuniga Jetty

Quick report. Fishinmike and I went out today at about 0600. Was about 60 degrees out when we launched from The Shelter Island Yacht Basin. Water temp was nice, no breeze and the water like glass. Lots of yaks and small motor boats out. Small boats obviously hunting the Hali. Saw/heard of 2 legals caught.

Trolled all the way out two the Zuniga Jetty. Not one bite on my croc. Made it to the end. Smooth trip since there was little current. Fishinmike stayed north by the shoals. He caught a couple spotties. Spent a couple hours here. Couple bites and caught 2 large lizard fish. Went to fish the bait barge area and got a bite but nothing landed. As usual the breeze picked up about 10.

Headed into fish my spot. You know the spot you have that rarely lets you down. The spot you go to so you don’t get skunked. Because to me even catching 2 large lizard fish is getting skunked. My spot did not let me down. Had to shift from a 5 inch ghost shrimp rubber to a 3 inch grub. BANG. Small spottie followed by a 12 inch spottie followed by a Hali. Ended the day on that.

Would suggest motor oil green lures if you head out over the next 24-48 hours.

Fishinmike: 5 spotties and 1 Cuda
Bubbacee7: 2 spotties , 1 Hali, 2 Lizzies

Luck to you all.

No we did not fish the launch ramp area. We do a fairly good job of mixing things up.
