Northern Atlantic Fishing

Over the water from Old Greenwich, Northern Atlantic Fishing keeps local anglers stocked with gear. A block inland on Field Point Road, the shop sits quietly between marinas and boatyards. Next to tackle boxes and rods, you’ll pick up line, lures, and fly-fitting basics without heading back downtown.

They hand out striped-bass patterns as often as they stock them. Whether you need live-bait buckets or down-rigger clips, the shelves carry what a day on Long Island Sound demands. Small-engine tune-ups sit alongside waders and flotation vests for the serious wader. A reel repair station waits for tangled spools that can’t wait till next season.

Questions about regulations, tides, or safe docking usually end with a quick call. Spend a minute chatting tactics at the counter, then call (203) 621-4705 for real-time questions that can’t wait. The staff has seen enough storms to know when it’s worth pushing off.

Grab what’s missing from 75 Field Point Road and plot a course using the map to the shop. Straightforward directions cut through town better than winding back roads.
