Northshore Report – First Light Anglers

September 30th- Well, I cannot believe it is already October. This last month has absolutely flown by. I apologize for the lack of reports the last couple of weeks. Nat and I have simply been flat out running charters and I have not even been

There’s no sign that this thing’s over yet.  But we can figure it’s going to start tailing off over the next few weeks.  That said, this may be some of the best fishing you see all season. Bass3six had this: Fished with Marvin Mojo Lewiton

Finicky tuna is the story of the week.  Lots trying, few succeeding. Webfoot summed it up: Today was unbelievable. Headed out mid-morning, southeast of Cape Ann. I can’t even describe how many pods of tuna were out there. Hundreds. However, the fish were extremely picky….In

Everyone’s got the tuna bug.  The guys at First Light Anglers in Rowley report on the 25th: Got into our first legitimate school tuna feed yesterday afternoon and evening. My buddy hooked two on a popper and pulled the hook on both. Another friend hooked

Capt. Charlie Crue reports: Merrimack River Report #9 July 21, 2005 The inshore striper fishing has been very good this past week. There are still many “twinkie” size schoolies in the river and the big fish have moved back into the shallow waters on the

ChuckD reports the greenheads have moved in to the Essex area, which ought to make fishing Plum Island, Crane’s etc. a really good time.  Fly Deacon puts it best "like flying piranha."  Steve reports that the pogies in Marblehead have some new company… Bombed over from
