Striped Bass

Stripers Biting Fast, Fluke Adding to the Catch

Fishing out of Narragansett, RI has been red hot this week, especially for striped bass. According to a local guide, recent trips have delivered nonstop action, with bass "committing suicide" right from the start. Both trolling and light tackle approaches are producing steady hookups, making it a great time for anglers of all skill levels to get in on the fun.

In addition to the bass blitz, anglers are also picking up a mix of fluke during targeted sessions. A solid hour spent working the bottom added to the haul, topping off the day with fresh filets perfect for grilling during summer getaways. The bite is strong, the weather is cooperating, and the fish are hungry—ideal conditions for anyone looking to get out on the water in Narragansett.
