After a few days of strong wind we finally got to make our 3/4 day striper trip. It was a real nice day on the water with good fishing and a lot of people missed it. The action was good with a mix of sizes. We were able to make long drifts. We had o

On the 39 had Larry DeLuise back with Joe and new to striper fishing Jason and Mark. None of the guys had ever livelined but with my Pure Luv coaching style they got good quickly. Larry led the way with half a dozen to 37 inches rest of the guy

Had George and Jim out for Stripers today. Spent a lot of time looking for bunker and only had 10 bunker to show for our efforts. We caught 8 fish on those ten bunker and that was that- wish we could have found more bunker but biggest went 41 inches

Had the Kelly family out this afternoon. Took a ride and found some excellent striper fishing - all big over sized fish. Matt caught the biggest which was 48 and was previously tagged not bad for his first striper! Diamond jigs and small spoons were

More pics from our latest sunset striper expedition!

Had Peter Gravinese and the guys out today for stripers. Moved the trip to Point Pleasant with the west wind. Great guys and caught some fish throughout the day. 

Bonito have also been in the mix.   Albies hit the RI oceanfront in big numbers this week. Here's a large one I landed from shore. It all broke open this week.  I just knew with the massive amounts of bait along the oceanfront that the

Boston Harbor Striper Action is On! Striped bass fishing in Boston Harbor is absolutely heating up! We’ve been out on the water regularly and let us tell you — the action is real and the bites are steady. Every single trip has produced f

Wow what an afternoon today! Left the dock at 12pm with Mark Freeman and we caught 22 fish and returned to dock at 2:30pm all on live bunker. The guys were relatively new to live lining but did great with the circle hooks after a small learning curve

Captain JR reports a slight improvement in the local bass action. We had a few very nice stripers that were unfortunately much too big to keep. Also a few nice blues to bend the rods. Definitely not a slammer trip but a positive sign for the rapidly

Had Alex and Ilya back after there Striper crush from last week. Figured we would give tuna casting a shot. Had a half a dozen shots at them but couldnt connect. Ended the day bagging a bunch of slots and keeper stripers for dinner.

  Yup they are still around. This was one of the big surprises of the day. I was out for stripers this morning and I did land good numbers of them.  However the bite quickly faded.  At that point I noticed something else going on in f

The lake level is at 1070.05 (.95 feet below full pool) with water temperatures from 79-80 degrees and the main lake is clear. Water temps had reached their normal summer temps but the recent cool nights and rain has severely reduced the lake temper

Andreas Toy hosted the annual Fish On Tournament 3rd year in a row it included close to a dozen local Capts to benefit a worthy cause. There were 62 anglers with most boats putting up some good #'s with windy conditions.  On the 31 Capt Gre

Had first timer Mark Kuminski out for stripers today. Tough getting bait but once we started fishing it was lights out instant bites for an hour straight and then steady picking and left them biting! Hard to beat for their first time livelining bunke

  There has been a glut of schoolies along the RI oceanfront in the last couple of weeks. Here is one of many that I landed this afternoon. All year I have been writing on this blog about the lack of schoolies. The poor Young of the Year Indexe

  My friend and charter boat captain Jerry Sparks got me hooked up with the Varivas line company.  This Japanese line company was looking for a surf fisherman that could be a field tester for them for their premium braided lines and fluoro

  The fishing has seen an uptick in the  last week.  Kayakers and boater have had the advantage. I landed this one a few days ago from the yak. The recent very high and low tides delivered improved action for stripers here in RI. The

 The striper fishing has gone from red hot to ice cold in a matter of days. On Friday I hit one of the biggest blitzes of fish that I have seen in years.  At one point a school of fish in front of me was bigger than the size of a football
