Blackfish Season Finally Opens • Porgy Fishing Has Remained Solid • Ni – J & J Sports Inc.-Bait & Tackle-Fishing Long Island

The blackfish season is officially open on the north shore and the south shore. Blackfish are a great challenge to any angler and provide an excellent fight. The best bait to use for blackfish would be clam or green crabs. When fishing with green crabs it’s best to cut them up in to pieces by removing the legs and cutting them in half, so be sure to bring a good pair of shears on your next blackfish excursion. The best places to catch blackfish would be places with structure or rocks like inlets or wrecks. The best way to fish green crab would be to use a blackfish jig and let it bounce along the bottom.
