WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Fire Island is a famous barrier island in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York, part of the Fire Island National Seashore. Its Atlantic surf, Great South Bay, and Fire Island Inlet create one of the most diverse fishing environments on the northeastern Atlantic coast, where striped bass, bluefish, summer flounder, and weakfish can all be targeted within a small geographic area. Fire Island's surf fishing for trophy striped bass is legendary in the New York saltwater fishing community. Spot Features: Fire Island is a barrier island in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York, with both an Atlantic Ocean-facing surf beach and Great South Bay on its back side. Striped bass are caught in the surf along the ocean shore and at the Fire Island Inlet, using live bunker, eels, and surface plugs at dawn and dusk, bluefish are caught on metal jigs and poppers in the surf, fluke in the bay areas by drifting Gulp baits. Access is primarily by boat or ferry from the mainland. Seasonality: Striped bass are the primary target along Fire Island from late spring through fall, with peak action during the schooling season in July through September when bass follow bunker pods along the ocean-facing shore. Bluefish are extremely abundant in summer and fall along the Fire Island National Seashore. Summer flounder (fluke) are available from late spring through early fall in the back bay and inlet areas. Weakfish can be encountered in spring and fall.
