Striped bass, fluke, tuna and shark fishing are all getting better, much better. Along South West Ledge and the island’s south side, the bite continues to improve with plenty of bait to be found. Sand eels have been seen along the Narragansett shoreline with lots of small blues […]
Great clouds of sand eels continue to envelop Block Island’s west side. There is talk of bonito off Sakonnet Point, muskies in New Bedford, big fluke off of Jamestown and keeper stripers atop Hope Island. This week starts fishing at its best, we hope, and maybe some runs […]
Over on Block Island, the fishing seems to be mirroring the mainland action: good but not great. With the exceptional exceptions of a few big bass being taken in the Narragansett area, shore fishing seems a bit slow. Again. Didn’t we just go through this last year? […]
Striped bass of all sizes have moved into local waters. Many seem to be holding up high in Narragansett Bay near the mouth of the Providence River and around the islands. This time of year classics like Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnows, white or pearl Zoom Fluke’s and Slug-Go’s seem […]
This past weekend blessed us with fair winds, calm seas and just enough fog on Sunday to add a cloak of secrecy to those drifting for fluke which so far, has been slow but decent. Most success has been found along that magical 50-60’ line just south […]
this piece originally ran in the Narragansett Times back in March. Fishing today can be frustrating and it’s not what it used to be. There are hundreds of rules and regulations, there are trucks parked where you always parked to sneak into your secret spot that’s certainly not […]
Hopefully by now, fishermen who target striped bass or any other local species will have sent an email to the RIDEM about proposed regulations for this year’s striper season. We have an amazing and rare opportunity to get out ahead of a fishery in trouble, trouble that we […]
thank you all for such a wonderful first year of fish and words… Quite a year to be a fisherman, it was. This was the first year for Fish Wrap and as is often a writer’s tradition, a few caps were twisted off during a few quiet […]
Back in the day, John Swienton would turn the Bonnie S. north out of Old Harbor, then steam less than twenty minutes at 8 knots to find his mark off Clay Head. Filling his Thermos cup, he watched the high cliff line for a green mansard roof, checked […]
August 22, 2014 The soft sand along Cards Pond can make for tough walking, especially in waders. When the pond is breached, exiting brackish water carries small bait fish and often there are bass and blues waiting for a meal delivery. It’s hard to make eastward progress up […]
