あらすじ・解説
As of October 31, 2024, the fishing scene in the Hudson River around New York City is buzzing with activity, especially with the fall migration in full swing.
### Weather and Tides
Today's weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 62 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 50 degrees. The winds will be moderate, coming in from the northwest at about 10 mph. The tidal cycle shows a high tide at 9:47 AM and a low tide at 3:54 PM, which are crucial times for targeting striped bass, especially during the outgoing tide when the water is warmer and baitfish are more active.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:23 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, providing ample daylight for both morning and evening fishing trips.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw excellent fish activity, particularly for striped bass. Anglers reported catching stripers ranging from 25 to 45 pounds throughout the day. The night bite for stripers has also been strong, with many "nighstalkers" reporting successful catches. Striped bass have been spotty but consistent in certain areas, particularly around the Statue of Liberty and the East River. Bluefish and occasional weakfish are also present, feeding aggressively on baitfish like peanut bunker and mackerel.
### Best Lures and Bait
The striped bass are hitting pretty much anything you throw at them, but slim-profile baits such as Tsunami sand eels, bullet SP Minnows, and Hydro Minnows have been particularly effective. Live-lining bunker and using diamond jigs and hard plastics have also produced impressive results. For those using fly rods, epoxy minnows have worked well.
### Hot Spots
Some of the hot spots include the areas around the Statue of Liberty and the East River, where striped bass have been consistently caught. Further up the river near Troy and Albany, larger bass up to 40 inches have been reported. The Hudson River's northern parts, especially around Wappingers Creek and the Troy Dam, have also seen significant activity.
This is a fantastic time to get out on the water, with the fall run in full swing and a variety of fish species actively feeding. Make sure to take advantage of the favorable tidal conditions and the right lures to maximize your catch. Tight lines
