  • Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report: Stripers, Blues, and More Biting in Spring's Sweet Spot
    May 25 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Martha's Vineyard fishing report for Sunday, May 25th, 2025.

    We're in the sweet spot of spring fishing now, folks! The water's warming up nicely since that unusually cold start we had this season. Today's looking to be a beauty with moderate temperatures and light winds - perfect for getting out on the water.

    Striped bass action has really picked up over the last few weeks. What started as mainly holdovers in our rivers and salt ponds has transformed into a solid run of fresh fish. Schoolies are abundant along the South Shore, and I've gotten reports of some nice keeper-sized bass being taken at Menemsha and Chappaquiddick. Early mornings and evenings are your best bet, especially around the tide changes.

    Speaking of tides, we've got a high tide around mid-morning today with another in the evening, creating perfect feeding windows at dawn and dusk. Sunrise was about 5:15 AM, and sunset will be around 8:10 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to work with.

    The bluefish have arrived! Just as expected, those big choppers started showing up mid-May and they're hungry. South-facing beaches are your best bet, particularly Wasque Point and South Beach. Don't forget those wire leaders, folks - these blues will slice through mono like it's nothing!

    Tautog fishing remains excellent in Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound. The rockpiles outside river mouths are consistently producing keeper-sized fish, especially during falling tides when that warmer water pushes out. Green crabs are still the top bait, but jigs tipped with crab are working well too.

    Black sea bass season is now open, and the fishing has been fantastic! Boats heading out from Oak Bluffs are reporting limits of sea bass in the deeper structure, with some nice fluke mixed in as a bonus.

    For lures, I'm seeing great results with white and chartreuse soft plastics for the stripers, particularly paddle tails on 1-ounce jigheads. Diamond jigs and heavy metals are working for the blues, while squid strips and seaworms are producing for those targeting fluke and sea bass.

    Hot spots this week: The rip at Wasque Point has been fire for both stripers and blues, especially on the outgoing tide. For the boat anglers, the deep structure off Oak Bluffs is loaded with sea bass, and Middle Ground between us and Falmouth is producing some nice mixed bags of stripers and blues.

    That's it for today, folks. Tight lines and see you on the water!

  • Fishing Report: Stripers, Blues, and More Biting on Martha's Vineyard
    May 24 2025
    Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Martha's Vineyard fishing report for this fine Saturday, May 24th, 2025.

    Folks, it's shaping up to be another beautiful day on the Vineyard! We've got sunrise at 5:12 AM and sunset at 8:07 PM, giving you plenty of daylight hours to wet your lines. Today's weather is looking mighty fine - partly cloudy skies with temps hitting the mid-70s and a gentle southwest breeze at 5-10 knots. Perfect conditions to be out on the water!

    Tide-wise, we've got high tide coming in around 9:15 AM and again at 9:40 PM, with low tide around 3:30 PM. That falling tide in the afternoon should be prime time for targeting those hungry stripers and blues.

    Speaking of stripers, they're really showing up in numbers now! The spring migration is in full swing, with schoolies abundant all around the island and some keeper-sized bass mixed in. The east end of the Canal and Buzzards Bay have been producing consistent catches. Water temps have finally climbed into the low 50s, and that's got the fish actively feeding.

    Bluefish have arrived right on schedule! They've been tearing up baits along the south-facing beaches, with some nice choppers in the mix. If you're after blues, beef up those leaders and throw some metal lures or popping plugs.

    Sea bass season is now open, and limits are being caught in Buzzards Bay with some fluke and bluefish as bycatch. Flounder fishing remains strong in the deeper channels.

    Tautog are still holding on rock piles outside river mouths, especially during falling tides. Green crabs with trimmed legs remain the top bait, though jigs are working well too.

    For hot spots, I'd recommend trying Menemsha Harbor early morning for stripers - they've been hitting white bucktail jigs tipped with pork rind. The rips off Chappaquiddick have been productive during tide changes, and Wasque Point has been giving up some nice blues on diamond jigs and poppers.

    Bait-wise, fresh herring is king right now if you can get it. The herring runs are thick, and that's what the predators are keyed in on. Chunked mackerel and squid are solid alternatives.

    For the artificials crowd, white or bone-colored topwater plugs during dawn and dusk, switching to swimming plugs or soft plastics in pearl or mackerel patterns during daylight hours.

    The intersection of bass and bait in the ripping currents has been explosive, especially when those fallback herring get flushed downstream.

    Remember folks, treat those fish with care if you're practicing catch and release, especially the breeding females. Let's ensure we have great fishing for years to come!

    This is Artificial Lure signing off - tight lines and see you on the water!

  • Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report: Stripers, Blues, and Sea Bass Abound as Spring Fishing Heats Up
    May 23 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Martha's Vineyard fishing report for Friday, May 23rd, 2025.

    The fishing around the island has really been heating up these past couple weeks! We've got a great mix of species in our waters right now. Striped bass numbers are solid, with schoolies all over and some keeper-sized fish mixed in. Those first bluefish I predicted would arrive earlier this month have definitely shown up, with some nice choppers in the 30-inch range being reported.

    Black sea bass season opened on May 17th, and folks are already enjoying good success. Over on the Cape side, anglers have been hitting their limits in Buzzards Bay with a nice bycatch of fluke and blues. If you're targeting sea bass, consider heading to the rock piles off the western side of the island.

    The weather's been a bit rough lately, with churned-up seas keeping most boats at dock these past couple days. But that hasn't stopped our more determined surf casters, who've been rewarded with some impressive linesiders for their efforts.

    For those heading out today, look for calmer conditions as the wind starts to die down. The early morning bite has been productive, especially around Menemsha and Chappaquiddick. The south shore beaches are starting to produce consistent action as well.

    As for tackle, topwater plugs have been working great in the early mornings and evenings for both stripers and blues. White or bone-colored Spook-style lures are getting smashed. For those targeting sea bass, jigs tipped with squid strips are your best bet. Don't forget to beef up your leaders if you're going after those toothy bluefish!

    Hot spots right now include the rips off Wasque Point, especially on the falling tide, and the rocky structure around the north shore. The flats around Cape Poge have been giving up some nice fish during the flooding tide.

    Flounder fishing is also good in the deeper holes, particularly if you're working the transition between Cape Cod Bay and Vineyard Sound.

    The tides this weekend will feature a strong morning ebb, so plan your trips accordingly. The best fishing has been two hours before and after tide changes.

    And for those waiting on scup, they're here too! Season opened a couple weeks ago, so grab your light tackle and have some fun with these tasty panfish.

    That's it for today's report, folks. Get out there and wet a line – the fishing's only going to get better as we head deeper into spring. Tight lines until next time!
