Where to Go Winter Fishing on Long Island

Posted in News

Just because the winter is here, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy what all of Long Island has to offer. There isn’t a lot of charter boat fishing in Nassau County, but the boats in Freeport and Point Lookout happen to be open all year round. Despite the cold temperatures, there’s plenty of fish in the sea! Unfortunately, striper season has just come to an end. However, bluefish, weakfish, Atlantic cod, haddock and mackerel are in season all year long. Black sea bass and porgy are in season until December 31. And you’re not going to catch any of the big fish standing on land. So bundle up and get ready to head out to sea with the best charter boats out of Freeport and Point Lookout. Charter Boats Winter fishing on Long Island almost wouldn’t be possible without charter boats. Even those who have their own boats have trouble keeping up with all the winter maintenance, so they end up storing them away. So every now and then when you feel like having fresh fish for dinner, hop on a charter boat for the catch of the day. Our favorite charter company out of Freeport is the Captain Lou Fleet, this fleet is one of the few who braves...

Do watch your alcohol intake: This is very important because you don’t want to be the one that gets sick in front of your boss. It’s best to think that a holiday office party is not the place to test your limits. You might even have to work the next day. Try to limit your drinks and eat before the party.
