Friday 5/18 – Yankee Clipper 12 hour private charter and the bite was hot all day it slowed down a little for about an hour around 1100am. The group absolutely slammed them in the afternoon with lots of limits and a lot of large haddock.

Thursday 5/16 – Yankee Clipper Morning bite was beyond steady we have been consistently catching 5-7lb haddock in some areas. Customers get a flurry of cusk if we get close to rocks and the occasional large pollock.

Yankee Clipper – Tuesday 5/14 Consistent bite all day producing a lot of large haddock. Experienced anglers were close to their limits with 11-14 fish. Beginners found success too filling their bags with haddock and some cusk.

Thursday – 5/9 Yankee Clipper Marathon 5am-5pm the weather turned out to be far better than originally forecasted. Anglers had a consistent bite going in the morning and it really turned on in the afternoon before high tide.

Tuesday 5/7 -Yankee Clipper Steady bite all day but not quite a frenzy. Experienced anglers on average ended up with around 10 keeper haddock. Nice big cusk in the mix too and a few reds. GREAT weather.

5/4 and 5/5 on the Yankee Clipper Haddock bite is still steady Sunday was a little slower than usual. A few large pollock and some nice cusk coming over the rail too.

12 hour private charter with a boat limit except 2 people; the bite is on

Thursday 5/2 – Yankee Clipper 5AM-5PM Marsthon – bite was HOT all day and May is off to a great start. Customers and crew saw some healthy large haddock on the trip. Let’s go fishing this weekend.

Strong bite more than half the day with lots of good anglers on board. Slowed down for the last hour or two but still fish coming up. Large haddock and some huge cusk. Lots of limits on haddock.

The spring haddock are feeding voraciously right now.  Lots of action!

We did 4 drifts today.  Second drift was the best with the biggest haddock.

It was a haddock slamathon on the Yankee Clipper today!

The productive haddock fishing continued on Friday’s charter marathon!

The Clipper crew reported a non stop Haddock bite today.  Limits for just about everyone on board.

4/14/2024 – Yankee Clipper – Gloucester MA Wind breezed up to 20 knots just as we were getting the day started. After the tide change weather conditions improved. Experienced anglers had some nice bags of haddock and other species but the bite was hot and cold.

Thursday 4/11 – Yankee Clipper – Gloucester MA Steady bite again this morning required sorting through and throwing back some undersized fish. A handful of anglers got their limit of haddock. Foggy all day and the weather never broke people earned their fish today. Nicer days around the corner.

Steady bite throughout the day some anglers had 10-12 keep haddock and a lot of people had 5-10. Nice large red fish coming on the boat too. The weather cooperates for most of the day and wind picked up in the afternoon.

First trip of 2024 is in the books. Good anglers joined us through a little rough weather to catch some haddock. Many people had 2-5 haddock a few anglers had 9-11. Steady bite on clams fish were hitting hard when we were on them. Mix of reds and pollock also.
