Winter Fishing

Rubbah on a jighead...fished slow

[Clammer]

same as what DAD said :;

BUT /not always slow & not always directly in the discharge ;;

have differnt weight heads & size rubber / But normally big isn,t always best ;;

trying different things / & in a discharge its similiar to regular fishing .in the fact that the fish will move in & out depending on force of the discharge ;;& bait /water temp/ water salt level ;;

you can make this as simple or involved as you do the same the rest of the year ;;


PS >.if you have access to sandworms this time of year >>> add one as a trailer ;;;;

That's what the guys in CT use at the power plants in the winter.

Good Luck!

LIPA/northport grosses me out.

those fish that you catch in the winter there ... are covered with white yucky slime.

thanks, i'll wait till spring to catch healthy fish.

I've been away from my old stomping ground a long time. Is LIPA what we used to call LILCO? Saw some decent fish taken there, but I was hesitant to take any, not knowing if there was anything in that warm water that might make me glow if I ate a fish from. But that was 30 some odd tears ago. Smarter minds than I have will recommend what to use, I just wanted to say welcome, LI Guy.

I'd run several different weight jig heads with different size shad / cocahoe / grub bodies or storms. The different size jogs will allow you to switch and work different parts of the outflow. How wide is the outflow? Something you can cast across? At times you will need to experiment to find where/depth in the outflow they are...

That's the spot. As others have advised, rubber on small leadheads, small bucktails and my personal favorite, Bombers in the 15A size, fished very s-l-o-w-l-y. Don't forget to dress for the season and be careful walking out there.

Try having someone in your family head over to Campsite Sporting Goods in Huntington (on 110) and speak with Crazy Al. If he can't steer them in the right direction with some good advice, no one can. Just be careful fishing Northport, cause if you take a dunking, it's a long walk back and you might be hypothermic by the time you get back to your car (I'm speaking from experience on this one).
