Spring Striped Bass Fishing is Heating Up! | Season 2 Ep. 28

Spring Striped Bass Fishing is Heating Up! | Bay Rats & Buoys Season 2 Ep. 28 In this episode of Bay Rats and Buoys, Captain Gaige and First Mate Kory are back on the water chasing springtime striped bass across the back bays and beyond! After a quick fix from Keith at Yamaha in Britannia Yachting Center (the best in the biz!), we hit Huntington Harbor, the bay, and the Long Island Sound to track water temps and search for early season bunker and bait balls. With temps reading 55° in the harbor, 53° in the bay, and 50° in the Sound, striped bass fishing conditions are just starting to line up. We spotted 2-3 inch silversides near shore and located scattered bunker pods—signs that the spring striper bite is near! Plus, a surprise full-circle Bay Rats moment while talking with Mike at Compass Rose Marine Supply brought our CLiX Fueling story from the NY Boat Show right back home. Whether you’re a striped bass tournament angler, a back bay fisherman, or just love saltwater fishing content, don’t miss this episode. The countdown is on—just 59 days until our First Annual Striped Bass Invitational on June 22! Subscribe, register your boat, and follow along as we gear up for the season’s biggest event.
