South Shore Massachusetts to Maine Fishing

Hurricane Teddy is going to stir up some big seas on top of the already churned-up ocean from last week’s hard northeast blow. The beaches will be all weeded up and difficult to fish so my best for the week is inside the Merrimack River. The fishing at low tide has been very consistent and should remain strong through the rest of September. Most of the stripers are school-size fish but the action has been very good. September weather can be awesome and the fishing fantastic as long as the tropical depressions don’t bring our boating seasons to an abrupt halt. Let’s hope the current weather pattern gives us break the last weekend of September will bring us favorable conditions. As our water temperatures begin to drop, both the offshore and inshore fishing activity can be intense. Some of my most memorable fishing experiences have taken place during the month of September. Let’s hope the weather holds out and we can all look forward to some great fall action.
