As of November 1, 2024, the Hudson River is gearing up for the final stretch of the striped bass season, which runs until November 30. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Conditions
- **Tide:** Today's tide cycle starts with a low tide at around 8:30 AM and peaks at high tide around 2:30 PM. This cycle is ideal for targeting striped bass as they tend to be more active during the changing tides.
- **Weather:** Expect a partly cloudy day with temperatures ranging from the mid-50s to the mid-60s, making it a comfortable day for fishing.
- **Sunrise and Sunset:** Sunrise is at 6:30 AM, and sunset is at 4:45 PM, giving you ample daylight to fish.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a decent amount of striped bass activity, particularly around the areas north of the George Washington Bridge. The fish were mostly caught in the 23-28 inch range, adhering to the new regulations that came into effect on May 1, 2024. Anglers reported catching these bass on sand eels, shads, and metal jigs.
### Best Lures and Bait
For today, your best bet would be to use lures that mimic the natural baitfish in the area. Sand eels, shads, and metal lips are highly recommended. If you prefer bait, live or artificial eels and bunker chunks are excellent choices.
### Hot Spots
- **Tappan Zee Bridge:** This area has been a hotspot for striped bass, especially during the changing tides. The structure around the bridge attracts a lot of baitfish, making it a prime spot for bass.
- **Croton Point:** Located further up the Hudson River, Croton Point offers a mix of rocky and sandy bottoms that striped bass tend to favor. It’s a good spot to try your luck with both lures and bait.
### Additional Tips
Given the cooler weather, the bass might be a bit more sluggish, so be patient and vary your presentation. Also, remember the one fish bag limit and ensure any caught bass are within the 23-28 inch range to comply with the new regulations.
With the right gear and a bit of luck, today should be a great day to catch some striped bass in the Hudson River. Good fishing
