The parking lot at Crab Meadow is open daylight hours. Don't park in the restaurant's lot. The walk down to the outflow isn't a bad one, although at high tide you have to wade around some pilings.
I haven't been there this year, but most years, there's a bar lining the outflow, about parallel with the fence. Sometimes, it hangs a turn at an outer bar that is wadeable at low tide. Be careful not to take one step too many when wading at the outflow--it drops off and the current will sweep you out into the Sound. While the outflow water might be in the 60s, the Sound is in the low 40s and it's certain hypothermia if you get swept out. Best go in daylight, preferably with someone who's been there before. If you have to go alone, take your cue on where to wade and how close to the edge you can go from the other folks fishing there. If you have the place to yourself, either the fishing's been slow or the usual suspects feel it's the wrong tide

Don't let that stop you from making some casts, as fish don't read the tide charts, but be conservative in how close you get to the edge.
Small bucktails, or small shad bodies on a 3/4 oz jigheads are good lures. Plugs have their moments, but usually the fish are deep in the outflow.
