Season / Area Fished
Our season begins the latter part of April, fishing the Iower Connecticut river for striped bass. Most of this is shallow water fishing at it’s finest. As the end of May rolls around I shift my attention to the Watch Hill area for the annual squid migration. It can be a truly awesome fishing experience. Bass Iove squid! The mid-summer months of July and August typically find us with good numbers of both bass and blues, as well as bonito towards the end of August.
As for the false albacore, decent numbers usually show in early September and strengthen as we go into the fall. For those of you who are interested in attempting a “grand slam”, September and October are prime time. Our fall fishery is unsurpassed with usually all four species found in good numbers.
Our season ends the first part of November as the fall migration slows.
