STRIPED BASS AND BLUEFISH

Saltwater Sportfishing off the Northeast Coast of Massachusetts.

Summer Job Fishing Charters offers private charters, charter fishing (sportfishing) for striped bass (striper's), bluefish and mackerel in the Northeast, including the Merrimack River in Newburyport, Massachusetts.

 

 Yes, the boat is still covered but summer is coming!! The days are starting to get longer, the coldest days of winter are behind us and the boat goes back into the water in 12 weeks!!!                  

  Can you believe that fishing is now only 12 weeks away!?!? We started at 30 weeks!! The Fishing and Boating shows have started cropping up, Pete called and we are planning our annual walk around the Boston Boat Show. Seminars are planned and it is time to re-examine our gear one-more-time to be ready for 2010. Not to mention a few special purchases that Santa forgot to leave under the tree last Christmas.

 

 I also know summer is coming when Rich B. calls to schedule his annual Father / Daughter trip. This will be the 9th consecutive year now! Thank you!!!

 Enjoy the rest of the winter with your families, be it Ice Fishing, Sking or Snowboarding and I look forward to seeing you all soon!!

Good fishing

Ben's Monster Bass!

Ben (14 years old) told me the morning of his trip that he did not have to catch a "big fish" as long as he caught a lot of little ones! This striper was hastily measured with a short tape because we wanted a few photos before releasing her. We determined she was 46"s so I'm staying with it, but I think she might have been 48"! Either way, after a lengthly revival, she swam away to grow bigger!

Emma Collins gets a little help from Tucker with her 441/2", 32.6# striped bass she caught on 7-21-09.

  Sorry John, this is "only" the third largest striper of the season! It is a hard world when a 431/2", 31.2# bass is third place!! It continues to be a very good year for bigger bass!

 

 

 

The fishing has continued to be solid with the exception of a day or two between one body of fish moving on and another replacing them. The mackerel are now in and out of the mix as the water slowly warms. There are a few other hard earned tricks to produce fish so we continue to adjust and catch fish. The sun has even made a few appearances! 

If you are thinking about a family summer adventure, give me a call. I will always give an honest report, we will catch a few fish and make some great summer time memories.

PS. Check out the Merrimack River Fishing Report for an idea of just how good fishing can be!

 

 

We are having very good days on the Merrimack River!! It's been a challenging year for many and a charter is much cheaper than owning a boat! Come fish on the Summer Job!
