  • "Fishing the Charles River: Stripers, Blues, and the Secrets of Boston's Urban Waterway"

    "Fishing the Charles River: Stripers, Blues, and the Secrets of Boston's Urban Waterway"
    Sep 26 2024
    As of September 26, 2024, the Charles River in Boston is offering some exciting fishing opportunities, especially for those familiar with its nuances.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the high tide is expected at around 9:30 AM and the low tide at 3:30 PM. The weather forecast indicates partly cloudy skies with a high of 68°F and a gentle breeze out of the northwest. Sunrise was at 6:28 AM, and sunset will be at 6:24 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been robust, particularly for striped bass and bluefish. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of small, medium, and large striped bass, with some blues thrown into the mix. The presence of abundant bait such as peanut bunker and herring fry has been driving these fish to feed aggressively.

    ### Catch Reports
    Several anglers reported successful trips near the bridge pilings and deeper waters of the Lower Basin. One couple caught over 40 bass and blues using the tube-and-worm method, with all fish exceeding 33 inches. Shore anglers also did well off Point Allerton, Hull Gut, and Wollaston Beach.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, the tube-and-worm rig, particularly the Santini Tuscano tube, has been highly effective when trolled near islands and structure. Trolling Blue Water Candy Rock umbrella rigs has also yielded good results. For those casting from the shore, eels and clams have been working well, especially in the evenings near shoreline structures. Bright-colored shallow-diving crankbaits and spinnerbaits are effective near downed trees, while dark-colored jigs work better along bridges and pilings.

    ### Hot Spots
    Two hot spots to consider are the areas around the bridge pilings in the Lower Basin and the waters near the "blue building" close to the reserve channel. These areas provide shade and ambush points for feeding fish. Additionally, the waters deep inside East Boston near Constitution Beach have been productive, especially during certain tides.

    ### Tips
    Local anglers advise fishing early in the morning before the sun peaks and in the evening unless the sky is overcast. Pay attention to underwater holes and ledges where depths can change abruptly, and avoid areas with algal blooms. When targeting bass, focus on the structure side of bait balls, as bass tend to herd and ambush prey near islands, ledges, bridges, or shallows.

    With the right gear and knowledge of the river's dynamics, today promises to be a great day for fishing on the Charles River.

  • Fishing the Charles River: Navigating Weather, Water Quality, and Catch Opportunities

    Fishing the Charles River: Navigating Weather, Water Quality, and Catch Opportunities
    Sep 24 2024
    As of September 24, 2024, the Charles River in Boston is presenting a mixed bag for anglers, influenced by both the current weather and recent water quality alerts.

    ### Weather Conditions
    Today, you can expect a mild autumn day with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the low 70s Fahrenheit. The wind is moderate, blowing at about 10 miles per hour, which should not significantly impact your fishing experience. There is a slight chance of light precipitation, but it is unlikely to disrupt your plans.

    ### Water Conditions
    The water temperature in the Charles River is currently around 68°F, which is ideal for many fish species. However, it's crucial to note that there was a recent combined sewer overflow (CSO) event that ended on March 25, 2024, but the river's water quality can still be affected by such events, especially after heavy rain. As of now, the water clarity is relatively good, but turbidity can increase with any new rainfall.

    ### Fishing Spots and Recommendations
    For those looking to fish in the Charles River, the areas just upstream of the Boston University Bridge to the Mass. Ave. Bridge are typically good spots. Here are some recommendations:

    - **Bait and Tackle**: For catching striped bass and bluefish, which are common in the Charles River, use baits like live or artificial shad, herring, or peanut bunker. Tackle such as tube-and-worm rigs or Blue Water Candy Rock umbrella rigs have been successful in recent days.
    - **Fish Activity**: Striped bass are often found near structures like bridges, islands, and shallow areas where they can ambush prey. They tend to feed in the early morning and late afternoon. Bluefish can be found in schools and are active throughout the day, particularly in areas with abundant bait.
    - **Depth**: Striped bass can be found at various depths but are often near the surface during feeding times. Bluefish are generally surface feeders but can also be found in mid-water.

    ### Local Events and Regulations
    There are no major local fishing events scheduled for today, but it's important to be aware of any ongoing or recent CSO events that might affect water quality. Always check the latest updates from the Cambridge Public Health Department or the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority before heading out.

    ### Tips from Local Anglers
    Captain Mark Rowell suggests focusing on the bay side of Hull through World’s End and the Weir River for steady catches of striped bass. Lisa from Fore River Fishing Tackle in Quincy recommends trolling the Santini Tuscano tube near Slate and Grape Islands for both blues and bass.

    ### Best Times for Fishing
    The best times to fish today would be early morning around sunrise and late afternoon just before sunset. These periods coincide with the peak feeding times for striped bass and bluefish.

    Remember to always follow local regulations, including catch limits, and be mindful of any water quality advisories to ensure a safe and enjoyable fishing experience.

  • Ideal Fishing Conditions for the Charles River in Boston on September 23, 2024

    Ideal Fishing Conditions for the Charles River in Boston on September 23, 2024
    Sep 23 2024
    For September 23, 2024, the Charles River in Boston is gearing up to be a great day for anglers, despite some challenging conditions.

    ### Current Weather Conditions
    As of the morning, the temperature is expected to be around the mid-60s to low 70s Fahrenheit, with a gentle breeze of about 5-7 mph. There is a slight chance of scattered clouds, but no significant precipitation is forecasted. This overcast sky could actually work in your favor, as local anglers agree that fishing is often better when the sun is not at its peak.

    ### Water Conditions
    The water temperature in the Charles River is currently in the mid-60s to low 70s Fahrenheit, which is ideal for many of the fish species present. The water level is influenced by the tides, with high tide expected around 11:12 AM and low tide at 5:35 PM. The clarity of the water is generally good, but be cautious of any algal blooms that might occur during warmer months.

    ### Best Fishing Spots
    Focus on the wider waters of the Lower Basin, particularly around the bridge pilings which provide shade and ambush points for feeding fish. Underwater holes and ledges where depths abruptly change are also prime spots. The areas near Harvard, Brandeis, and MIT, where the river winds through, can be rich in fish activity due to the diverse ecosystem.

    ### Bait and Tackle Recommendations
    For striped bass, which are abundant this time of year, use soft-plastic baits like creature baits, crayfish imitations, and ribbontail worms on a weighted hook. Topwater baits can be effective in the early morning and evening. If you're after chain pickerel, they can be caught all year round using similar baits.

    ### Fish Activity
    Striped bass are actively feeding on alewife herring and river herring fry, especially during their spawning season. They tend to move to deeper waters as the day warms up, so follow them to areas with abrupt depth changes. Chain pickerel are also active and can be found in various depths throughout the day.

    ### Local Events and Regulations
    There are no major local events or fishing tournaments scheduled for today, but always check for any catch limits or closures. The Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game often updates regulations, so it's a good idea to check their website before heading out.

    ### Tips from Local Anglers
    Captain Paul Diggins of Reel Pursuit Charters suggests using a mojo rig and an umbrella rig with white and green colors to attract bass. Local anglers recommend fishing early in the morning before the sun peaks and in the evening when the sky is overcast.

    ### Best Times for Fishing
    The best times to fish today are early morning before 9 AM and late evening after 5 PM. These periods offer the best conditions for catching striped bass and other species.

    With the right bait, tackle, and timing, you're set for a successful day of fishing on the Charles River. Enjoy your time on the water
