 Absolutely
my favorite to fish for and catch, the STRIPED BASS is the most
sought after fish on the WINDY. An extremely wary, hard fighter
and great eating makes the STRIPER the inshore king. Growing to
70 pounds the STRIPED BASS is a match for any angler. The largest
ever caught on the WINDY was a 67 pound whopper. That's a fish of
a lifetime. The average fish we bring in is about 18 pounds, perfect
filleting and eating size. On most trips we land one or two in the
30 pound range and ever year we catch a few in the 40's. Over the
years, anglers fishing on the WINDY have landed 24 over 50 pounds.
Fortunately
fishing for STRIPED BASS is my forte and anglers fishing on board
the WINDY usually bring home their limit. During the 2001 season
we landed well over 2000 STRIPERS.
 In
MONTAUK we have the best STRIPED BASS fishing in the world, and
because of this we can break the day up by offering combination
trips. STRIPER fishing is very often combined with FLUKE, SEA BASS
and PORGIES, or SHARKS. This really makes for a great day of sport
and superb eating afterwards. The season for STRIPED BASS starts
in early May and runs through the middle of December. Spring, summer
and the fall we send our anglers home with full coolers.
