I was out there twice this year, once for an annual surf fishing event (MV vs ACK) Since you get teamed with a local for the event, you get the skinny on the local spots.
I would try great point if you can get a ride...it is a really long walk otherwise and most of the point is closed due to seals. I found that place best at dawn. The fishing can be very good at times but the seals are so numerous and HUGE that fishing can be frustrating. Also the inside points along Cotue are very good as well but are difficult to get to without 4wd.

BTW, this time of year I would target Bonito in the morning on light rods with small metal. IMO the best place for them would be GP or the cut at smith point.

There are a couple decent access roads around the airport that get you down to some productive night time bass stretches. You can park/walk those easily. Look on a map. I picked up a few bass there one night and missed a mini blitz (lasted only an short while, but everyone hooked up)

Madaket is also a place you can walk to. Looks fantastic but I have not caught anything significant there (yet) at least in recent years. A long time ago I had a fantastic night down there.

Stop into a both tackle shops and buy a lure or two and ask for the latest scoop. They will talk to you and give you some good current leads
