Striped Bass
While Port Crane is inland, if you're determined to target striped bass in New York, you'll need to head towards the coast. Focus your striped bass efforts closer to the saltwater influence, like Long Island Sound or the Hudson River estuary. Spring and fall migrations bring stripers into these areas, following baitfish schools. Bridge pilings, rocky shorelines, and areas with strong current are all prime locations. Live bait such as bunker is highly effective, but artificial lures like swimbaits and topwater plugs can also be productive. Water temperature and salinity play crucial roles, so monitor them closely. For access, consider public boat ramps along the Hudson River, ensuring you have the appropriate saltwater fishing license. Remember to check regulations as size and bag limits can vary.
