Where to Go for Montauk Surfcasting
[ad_1]
The most productive location in Montauk for volume and quality is under the Montauk Lighthouse. Most of the people have seen many great bass taken from this spot over the years. The best time to fish here is during the flood tide with a N.E. Wind in your face. Bucktails and lures are prevalent. This is an extreme location. You will need to be equipped with cleats, waterproof jacket and waders. It will be crowded at the lighthouse (Up-front) during a chew, newcomers to the sport should not attempt to fish here. Along with this area are Scott’s cove, Jones’ Reef, the Weed Bowl and the Bluffs. These areas are within walking distance of the lighthouse on the northern side. Most of the people have caught many trophy bass at these spots. Hardcore rocks, such as Evans’, Weakfish, Shark and Blackfish rock are located in the deeper waters of this area. Turtle cove is at the southern end of Montauk Point State Park. This is a beginner’s location with a soft sloping beach that leads to a deep water cove. It is very productive starting in mid September and is often very crowded with amateurs when the fish are blitzing. The western end of Turtle cove is often overlooked because of the rocky coastline which begins there and extends west for several miles. This is an excellent Montauk Fishing Reports, though Montauk Surfcasting is a great problem.
The sand beaches of Montauk town and points west are quite productive in the early summer, right through the fall. 4 fifty pound fish have been caught this year (’09) from the various cuts and muscle shoals along the coast. A mile west of Montauk town has been holding fish since May. This has been this summer’s hot skishing spot for me. You will need a 4WD beach permit (East Hampton Town) for the privilage to cruise this beach. Passed the resort of Gurneys’ Inn begins Hither Hills State Park, where you will need a NY State Beach Vehicle permit to proceed. East of town are the areas known as Indians’ Dead men, Ditch Plains and the trailer park. These spots are a bit more hard core and require heartier equipment.The most productive location in Montauk for volume and quality is under the Montauk Lighthouse.
