I had thought about it quite a few times and seen some people utilize this method, but here are my thoughts why I didn't (mainly cause I gots 4 wheeler usage)
It really limits your ability to hunt.
If you leave it and pound the shore line hunting, you still need to walk back along the shoreline to where you left it. And it is tough riding it over the dirt roads with fish.
I have found that it is just easier to make the hike to sows (about 30 mins) or Churches or out to the cut (Impossible to ride a bike out to) and it isn't worth the hassle of dealing with a bike.

fished cutty last year for the first time. i fish montauk a lot more as i am originally from LI. i don't think you can compare two of the most beautiful places in the world to striper fish. cutty has it's own charm. as does montauk, as does block and any of a dozen other legendary haunts. fish'em all if you can. if you go to only catch fish, wherever you go, and will be dissapointed if you don't, then let me know the formula for not getting dissapointed!

Cutty is a waste of time as is Block Island ,Montauk and all places in between
according to the legend, these place were hyped up by writers who's night job encompassed selling hotel rooms at Montauk, boat slips at Block and.........well,I am not sure what they are selling at Cutyy. Rocks maybe?
Anyway, Cape is the place you want to be.Bassdozer said so. I just would not try to cast those wooden Musso meta lips between two seals.
Or Jersey in the spring. But you might have to clear it with NIB first.
You got a better shot at tickets for Obama Nomination

A trip to the island with the Cutty Crew is one of the circled events on my season's calendar for a number of years now. While you always have a chance at possibly landing a 40 or possibly a 50, that is not what it is all about. A getaway with a bunch of guys who are as into striper fishing, with the Cuttyhunk Fishing Club as our base of operation, is about having fun, laughs, stepping back in time and getting away from the real world for a short bit. We laugh, lie, tell stories, swap and ho', chit on one another, wreck stuff on land and sea,and eat like kings. Always someone willing to go out and fish with. As close to being back in a college fraternity as you can get at my age,,,The majority of trips have not resulted in large nor numerous fish. But there have been some nice fish caught. Last year some of us even chartered with a local captain. We caught fish and learned a lot about surf fishing the island from being on the boat.
You need to be agile to navigate the bowling ball rocks that are constantly shifting underfoot over 75% of the shoreline. If you aren't agile or up to walking several miles at a whack, you are just not going to be able to access some of the proven, mystical, island gems. You'll be pissed for not having built up to it, as many can vouch for.
My seven trips have not gotten me even a 20# fish, but I still look forward to the trip and being with the guys.
