Look for a big push of bluefish this weekend.
At the mouth of the Connecticut River, Pat Abate of River's End Tackle, just sent this email:
"The blues have only been around a week or so, and we're already getting complaints from the fluke fishermen that they're pests.There have been some reports of blues off Millstone and surprisingly not too many reports in the river. Both Montauk and Greenport are loaded with blues."

Tom - Any reports of American Shad showing up yet?
Sorry for the delay. I have received one report of shad in the Palmer River.

Hi Tom,
There are some big striper in the bay. On Monday 21st May, fishing with local fisherman Brian Murphy out of Haines Park Riverside, Pat Sullivan (of Somerset Ma) landed a 46inch 42lb stiper. We were fishing between Comnicut light and Nyatt Point with live pogies. What a fish!!
