The albies have followed me home from Montauk and they are here in my home waters of Sea Isle. It has been good and is reminiscent of Montauk fishing. Also sea bass season opened and fishing has been great. I have a few openings this weekend and nex

Did someone say “Albie Fever”?! Shore kayak and boat anglers are all having luck hooking up with those funny fish off the south side of the Cape…Hyannis to Falmouth. Don’t get me wrong; many of those anglers are also getting ve

Fisheries and Wildlife have dispatched their trout trucks and stocked over 60 000 rainbows and 4 000 brown trout to various ponds across Massachusetts. You can go to the state’s website to find out which ponds get the fall trout stocking and w

We have been having too much fun as of late. In between fronts pushing thru the fly fishing around Savannah has been really good. Water is still pretty clear with temps still on the cool side making for great sight casting at low tide Should start se

Fished with Joanna and Mike last Monday for mahi. We ended up with four small mahi and an albie. We had a touch of bad luck and hooked and lost two gaffer mahi and another albie. Lots of bites. That may be my last mahi trip as the weather and Montau

The albie fishing has taken a dive.  Could this be the end of fishing for them in 2019. We'll see in the coming days. GONE. Since we had those big hurricane waves last week there have been few if any albies caught. By now the ocean should h

Huge schools of schoolies were busting all over the place off this beach.  This went  on for three solid months this fall along the RI oceanfront!  Every year I do my own fishing evaluation of the past year. I usually evaluate the fis

  They were around in late August but since then their numbers have declined big time. So far albie fishing overall from shore has been poor here in RI. The albie fishing so far in RI has been a big disappointment in 2021.   Expectations w

Ryan Jay Patty Luc and I headed out to catch some mahi yesterday. We caught two mahi and we lost a few more bigger fish. We also caught a few nice sized allbies. Pro Tip: When trolling keep your baits in the clean water in the wake. Baits in the whi

George We had a great time.  The albies were hard to find but Tom found enough of them for us all to catch at least one and my oldest Reid caught one on the fly.....mission accomplished.  We moved into the inlet and caught trout at the end

If you are content to catch schoolies there are millions of them around (and I'm not exaggerating)! I went down to the RI south shore beachfront today and saw some of the biggest schoolie blitzes imaginable.  On some of the south shore beac

  The albies are back. You'll have to do a lot of searching to find them. Stripers and blues are also around in good numbers. The albies have been back for about a week now. Back in September we had an early start to the season and fishing

Capt Willy and Greg had the Ballem family out today on the inshore grounds for a mixed bag trip. Mission accomplished and caught 10 different species including Bonito Spanish Macks and albies all close to home. Ended the trip with a dock and dine at

I had to really work for a few fish today.  The albies were around in good numbers but they were super fussy. Today was a frustrating day. We have a lot of these days when fishing for albies. We went out in the boat today in search of these fis

Brian T writes “Hi Stickman.. Albies were thick all week at Great Point Nantucket. There were times where the blues were in the wash and albies were blizting farther out smacking anything metal. When you hook up you can really feel that tail pu

The wooden egg float is one of the greatest gadgets ever invented. It isn't a lure.  It is simply a casting weight that delivers small offerings great distances. And it is an essential artificial that everyone should have in their surf bag

But you can still tell the size of this albie. My crowd didn't want to deal with the wind. So the wife and I went. It was reel good big albies all ya wanted. Pic is blurry.   -----Capt. Ray 

Fishermen who have gone out to the Monomoy rips have been rewarded with schools of big bass. This has been a welcome change as the bass have been scarce and small for most of the season. Top water was working great. This has surely been the year for

I’d describe myself as a cautious shore fisherman.   I don’t take chances.   But I found out on this early September day that even the most cautious of us can find ourselves in dangerous predicaments. Yes there is an element of

“The Pirate” and I ventured down to the Cape to check out some more fall Albie action.  We were not disappointed.  The sharks were pretty thick but we managed to thread plenty of albies between them and get some nice … Co
