Black Rock / South End Fishing Report

INSHORE – During the Winter season the migratory fish have left the area and the variety of fish available in State waters are slim. Cod, Atlantic is the main species to keep while winter fishing but they are found mostly in Rhode Island saltwater. Inshore anglers can fish for holdover Striper (Bass, Striped) in many of the tidal rivers. We are looking forward to the Spring run. As we find varying weather conditions from day to day we encourage all anglers to stay safe and warm when fishing. This is a great opportunity to check out some of the current Pro Angler App features along with new additions coming soon. We look forward to bringing you more great Pro Reports when the bite fires back up.

Black Rock / South End Fishing Report

INSHORE – This week we expect to see a continuation of the bite last week. Bass (Bass, Striped) will be higher up in the rivers. There may still be a few lingering around the mouths of the Housatonic, Connecticut and Thames rivers. The bigger sizes will still be caught at night. Soft plastics mimicking Herring and Eels will do well. Live Herring is your best bet. You can find Herring in the water all winter. Find the herring to find the fish. To the South we continue to see some Cod (Cod, Atlantic) turn up when the weather allows anglers to get out. Head just South of Block Island for the best bite. We hope to see this continue into next week.

Bridgeport Harbor is good for Tautog along with the walls as is New Haven Harbor and Stamford Harbor to the West. Sunken Island is also producing fish. You can also search the rock piles and wrecks in deeper water around 30-50 ft. Sea Bass (Sea Bass, Black) are mixed in but slowing down. Towards New London the Connecticut River and Thames River are holding tons of Bass. Anglers are throwing Plum Island Swim Baits for the best bite. This will work well in the Housatonic River as well. These baits are outstanding. PRO ANGLER APP USERS – Tap a fish below the report for more angling tips and tricks!

Black Rock / South End Fishing Report

INSHORE – Fishing is great this week. In the Sound, we are seeing big Bluefish. Anglers are also drifting Eels for big Bass (Bass, Striped). Less than 30 ft is key. Any wrecks in 35-40 ft of water are holding Tautog. Albies (Bonito, Little Tunny) have slowed down. They are still biting here and there but the numbers are less. From shore, the Housatonic river is loaded with Bluefish and good sized Bass. The Stripers are up to 25 lbs on topwaters such as SP Minnows. Off the beaches we are seeing tons of Blues up to 17 lbs. The anglers chunking have been doing well along with plugs and topwaters. The Estuaries are holding Bass taking white curly tails. Bass and Bluefish are biting in the morning and evening. Look for moving Bunker to find them. Blackfishing (Tautog) is good from New Haven to Norwalk. All the rock piles are packed full of fish. They are biting all day long however higher tides in the afternoon are best. Plum Island Baits are made in Connecticut and working well this week! Jimmy O’s also received new Hogy lures this week too! Stop in and stock up! PRO ANGLER APP USERS – Tap a fish below the report for more angling tips and tricks!

Black Rock / South End Fishing Report

INSHORE – Blackfishing (Tautog) is at it’s peak. Search shallow water rock piles as well as deep structure. Porgy (Scup) are mixed in with them. Sea Bass (Sea Bass, Black) are strong. Limits are easy to get in less than 20 ft of water. Search the rock piles with the Blackfish. Bass (Bass, Striped) and Bluefish are chasing Bunker along the shore. Bluefish are up to 20 lbs with most being are around 10-15 lbs. There’s been numerous Stripers caught up to 40lbs. Most anglers are throwing Topwaters but you can pretty much catch them on anything. As long as you fish a moving tide, fishing should be decent. The slack tide holds more lethargic fish that will reluctantly take bucktails or jigs. Nighttime is producing the bigger Bass. Schoolies are everywhere inshore on the rip lines and outflows. It’s difficult not to catch fish! There hasn’t been too many reports of Albies (Bonito, Little Tunny) as of late. They are still biting to the East and towards Southport. They are found on the smaller bait. PRO ANGLER APP USERS – Tap a fish below the report for more angling tips and tricks!
