New York Saltwater Fishing: Season & Tackle Guide

Montauk earns its reputation as the surfcasting capital of the world — every species migrating along Long Island passes its door twice a year, backed by the largest charter fleet in the state.

Peak Seasons

• Striped Bass: The September–October fall run is Montauk's marquee event, with a solid spring run too.
• Tuna: Bluefin peak June, July, and September; yellowfin run June through early October in the canyons.
