Staten Island is located about 13 miles southwest of New York City. The striped bass
fishing is excellent around the island. There are many fishing charters that operate off
of Staten Island and they target striped bass and bluefish. Surf anglers can also have
a lot of fun fishing for stripers throughout the island. There are local bait shops that
can help you with finding the right bait and tackle as well as some of the places that you
can fish from shore. If you want a chance at catching a real trophy striped bass with
some bluefish mixed in, your best bet is to hire a fishing charter.
