  • Late Fall Fishing Frenzy on Martha's Vineyard

    Late Fall Fishing Frenzy on Martha's Vineyard
    Nov 7 2024
    As of November 7, 2024, the fishing scene around Martha's Vineyard is vibrant, despite the late fall season. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, high tide is at 8:47 AM and low tide at 2:53 PM. Sunrise is early at 7:04 AM, and sunset will be at 5:27 PM. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a gentle southwest wind, making conditions favorable for fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Striped bass are still active in the area, particularly in the rips of Vineyard Sound. These bass are feeding heavily on squid and sand eels, creating exciting surface feeds. Bluefish have also been spotted, with some measuring up to 30 inches. Black sea bass and fluke are also joining the mix, especially in deeper waters.

    ### Catch Reports
    Yesterday saw a good number of striped bass caught, with several exceeding the legal size limit. Anglers reported catching solid keeper-size bass, especially around Middle Ground and Hedge Fence. Sea bass fishing remains good in deeper waters of Vineyard Sound and Buzzards Bay.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, using Hogy lures, especially those mimicking squid, has been highly effective. Green mackerel-colored plugs and paddletail jigs are also producing good results. For bluefish, peanut bunker and jigs have been successful. Black sea bass are biting well on clams and squid.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Middle Ground**: This area has seen consistent action with striped bass and bluefish.
    - **Hedge Fence**: Similar to Middle Ground, Hedge Fence has been producing good catches of striped bass and bluefish.
    - **Vineyard Sound Rips**: These rips are loaded with squid, making them a hotspot for striped bass.

    If you're looking to catch some bigger fish, consider the early morning tide at Point of Breakers, where large schools of shad have been attracting striped bass. With the right lures and bait, and knowing the hot spots, you're set for a great day of fishing on Martha's Vineyard.

  • Fishing the Vineyards: Late Fall Action Abounds for Stripers, Tautog, and More

    Fishing the Vineyards: Late Fall Action Abounds for Stripers, Tautog, and More
    Nov 3 2024
    As of November 3rd, the fishing scene on Martha's Vineyard remains vibrant despite the late fall season. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the sunrise is at 6:23 AM, and the sunset will be at 4:23 PM. The tides are moderate, with the high tide at 8:47 AM and the low tide at 2:53 PM. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a gentle northeast breeze, making it a comfortable day for fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    The fall migration is still in full swing, with striped bass and bluefish being the main attractions. Yesterday saw consistent reports of stripers pushing bait along the big waters of Vineyard Sound and Buzzards Bay. The bass are primarily schoolies up to 26 inches, with some larger fish caught in the estuaries using eels.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Striped bass are abundant, particularly in the surf and estuaries. Tautog fishing has been excellent, with several fish in the teens landed recently. Bonito are still present, although their numbers are thinning out, and some bluefish are mixed in with the bass.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, using large lures such as wakebaits and swimbaits at night has been productive. Soft plastics, metals, and mid-size topwaters are also recommended. Live eels and plugs like Hogy Originals and Jumpin Minnows have been successful for both bass and bluefish. For tautog, using crabs or clams on smaller pieces of structure has yielded good results.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots is the area around the Cape Cod Canal, particularly the west end, where tautog fishing has been very good. The outer beaches of Martha's Vineyard, especially those facing Vineyard Sound, are seeing a lot of bass activity. The salt ponds around the island are also producing schoolies and small bluefish.

    Overall, it's a great time to be fishing on Martha's Vineyard, with plenty of action from various species and favorable conditions. Make sure to bundle up as the mornings are getting chilly, but the fishing is well worth it.

  • Catching Stripers, Bluefish, and More on Martha's Vineyard's Vibrant Late Fall Fishing Scene

    Catching Stripers, Bluefish, and More on Martha's Vineyard's Vibrant Late Fall Fishing Scene
    Nov 2 2024
    As of November 2nd, the fishing scene on Martha's Vineyard is still vibrant, despite the late fall season setting in. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the sunrise is at 6:23 AM, and the sunset will be at 4:33 PM. The tidal cycle is influenced by the new moon, which could bring strong tides and significant fish movement. Expect high tide around 9:30 AM and low tide around 3:30 PM. The weather is mild, with temperatures ranging from the mid-50s to low 60s, making it ideal for both freshwater and saltwater fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Striped bass are still active in the area, particularly around the outer beaches and in the salt ponds. Yesterday, anglers reported catching schoolies up to 26 inches, along with some larger bass in the 30- to 40-inch range. Bluefish are also plentiful, feeding on peanut bunker and silversides in the back bays. Bonito, although less common, were spotted in the Cape Cod Canal area, and some hardy anglers managed to catch a few.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, small minnow plugs, 3- to 5-inch topwaters, and 4-inch paddletails are highly effective. Lures like Krocodile spoons, diamond jigs, and epoxy jigs are also recommended. If you're targeting bass in the salt ponds or estuaries, consider using eels or large wakebaits and swimbaits, especially at night. For bluefish, small metals and soft plastics work well.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the area around Monomoy, where the strong tides could bring a wave of bass through. The Sound side beaches are also worth a visit, as fish tend to round Monomoy and move into these areas. Additionally, the mouths of rivers and inlets where the bays and salt ponds empty into the sound are prime locations for catching stripers and bluefish.

    ### Freshwater Fishing
    For those interested in freshwater fishing, the ponds on Martha's Vineyard are stocked with trout, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and chain pickerel. These fish are actively feeding on the abundant herring in the ponds, making it an excellent time to cast large lures or use smaller soft plastics and metals.

    Overall, it's a great time to be on the water around Martha's Vineyard, with plenty of fish activity and favorable conditions. Enjoy your day fishing
