Striper Action Is Hot - Big Stripers

Capt. Roland Lizotte
June 22, 2008
Race Point - Saltwater Fishing Report

So lets just say summer is here and that you could not have asked for a  more perfect day than today to be on the water. We left Brewer's Marine a bit late today in order to catch the tide just right for our Captain's Choice charter (tuna/striped bass combo). We planned a half day for tuna and a half day for bass but as you will see, we never quite made it a day for tuna.
The ride across the bay was smooth at 35mph and we had our eyes open for birds and tuna busting the surface. The water was like glass and on a day like that, you can see the tuna pushing water from quite a ways away. We made the trip across in about 35 minutes and did not see any tuna action during our trip across. We had our jigs in the water shortly after we arrived at Race Point and right off, in less than 10 minutes, we had our first keeper bass in the boat. Not too big, but it was a great way to start the day. Just like in past trips, the tide began to slow and so did the fishing. We decided to make a move to one of my favorite spots off Wood End and Long Point and it was the right decision to make. We were on the bass and it was very fast fishing for the rest of the day. Every time our jigs hit the bottom we had fish on. It was about a 1 in 5 average with picking through smaller fish then nailing a nicer one. We had our limit of fish in the boat within a couple of hours. All the fish in the boat ranged in size from 10-20lbs (28-39"). So to my earlier point, the bass fishing was so good that we never made it out for tuna. From what I heard, the tuna bite was very slow and not many fish were taken.
Contact Capt. Roland for details.

Race Point Fishing Forecast:

Striper fishing should remain consistent with bigger fish moving in as the water warms. Looks for the best striper action to continue through the 3rd week in July. Tuna action is picking up with larger size fish showing up around the Cape.

Target Species:

Striped Bass, Bluefish, Bluefin Tuna, Cod, Haddock
