Fishing Greenport

Montauk, Orient and Greenport: Montauk Point is one of the most famous surf-casting spots in the world, especially in the fall run.

What's biting now (Fall): The Montauk fall run: striped bass, bluefish and false albacore along the beaches and points.

Commonly caught in this area: Striped bass, bluefish, fluke, porgy, black sea bass and false albacore in fall.

Also caught here: false albacore, scup, tautog, black sea bass, winter flounder.

Piers put you over deeper water without a boat. Fish the pilings for sheepshead and snapper, and cast out from the end for mackerel and pompano when they run. Many Florida piers sell a license that covers everyone fishing from that pier.

How the bite outlook works

The rating is our estimate, not a guarantee. It combines tide range, wind, rain and storms, temperature swings, the moon phase and how well the solunar periods line up with dawn and dusk. Fish do not read forecasts - local knowledge always wins. Read more
