New England - New England Surf Fishing Reports

New England Video Fishing Forecast April 25, 2024

Schoolie Stripers Reach Massachusetts Schoolie stripers have made as far as the Cape Cod Canal and Martha’s Vineyard this week, while Narragansett Bay is producing some larger fish, some of them already taping out above the slot limit. If you want to target some heavier stripers, western Long Island Sound has fish to 25 pounds taking flutter spoons and mojos. Tog fishing continues to improve, we have news of fish up to 10.5 pounds this week. American shad numbers have exploded since our last report, in both the Connecticut and Merrimack Rivers. Freshwater guys are doing very well with big largemouth bass, tanker smallies and lots of stocked trout.
