WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Orient Point Lighthouse at the tip of Long Island's North Fork is one of the most iconic fishing locations in the northeastern United States, where the violent tidal rips of the Race create legendary striper fishing and concentrations of bluefish, false albacore, and bonito that draw serious surfcasters and boat anglers from throughout the region. Spot Features: Orient Point Lighthouse marks the very tip of Long Island's North Fork in Suffolk County, New York, where the powerful tidal rips of the Race and Orient Harbor create exceptional conditions for striped bass, bluefish, false albacore, bonito, and scup. The rocky shoals and the confluence of Long Island Sound and Gardiners Bay make Orient Point one of the most productive and challenging fishing locations in the northeastern United States. Seasonality: Striped bass are the primary target at Orient Point Lighthouse at the tip of Long Island's North Fork, best in spring (May-June) and fall (September-October). Bluefish are abundant through summer and fall. False albacore and bonito arrive in late summer and fall. Scup (porgy) are summer bottom fish.
