Weakfish
Another option is to travel West to the mouth of the Connetquot and drift worms for Weakfish. I agree with Baywatch. It's unfortunate, but if you asked any angler to pick the worst port to fish from on the South Shore, it would be the Patchogue shores.
It's a shame too because with the 26 footer you're equiped to do some nice runs twenty to forty miles offshore. But from Patchogue you're gonna have to cut that range down to twenty-five to thirty miles max unless you consider bringing extra containers of fuel or making a stop at a marina closer to one of the inlets to top-off the tank before you hit the ocean. Even a simple fluke trip is gonna be a costly day in fuel for you.
