If you launch at Shelter Island and paddle straight across to the other side, near that naval base pier, That's a real good area. You can also hit the area opposite side of the Shelter Island pier too. If you want to paddle out toward the mouth of the bay right along the jetty, you'll really be in the thick of things. I live really close and fish the bay all the time. Those are my favorite spots for halibut.

I got these along the jetty.

That's what I'm looking for!!!!!!

Probably hit the bay by 6am or so. Looks like the best fishing will between then and noon.

Also, I probably will be launching from Shelter Island, try and make bait and give the other side a try first.

just a suggestion

to leave with the out going tide which turns at 7:00 am and come in after the tide turns again around 2:00 pm

after 7:00am and before 2:00pm it will make your paddle/peddle harder
