Bay Rats & Buoys Episode 8: Biggest Striped Bass Frenzy of The Year

Recorded from the dock in Huntington Harbor on the North Shore of Long Island, this week’s episode of Bay Rats & Buoys captures late November fishing action like no other. With air temps at 55° and water temps ranging from 53° to 56°, Captain Gaige shares the thrill of working big bird blitzes over massive schools of striped bass—ranging from scrappy 12-inchers to slots! Armed with super light tackle, we threw everything in our arsenal, landing plenty but searching hard for larger fish in the mix.

Plus, we’re inviting you to name the 15-inch striped bass we tagged on Sunday—drop your suggestions in the comments! Dedicated listeners can also score free Bay Rats & Buoys stickers by heading to SandCityCharter.com and filling out the form (don’t forget your mailing address!).

This week, we also chat about what’s next as our boat season wraps up and the podcast heads indoors for the winter. Don’t miss our underwater GoPro footage showing the ripping currents this week, and hear about our upcoming collaborations down south for the winter months.

Join us weekly as we close out the season with action-packed stories, giveaways, and more. Listen in, share your favorite moments, and help us name our tagged bass!
