As of October 2, 2024, the fishing scene on Martha's Vineyard is buzzing with activity. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Tidal and Weather Conditions
Today, the sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and the sunset will be at 6:14 PM. The tidal cycle shows a high tide at 9:17 AM and a low tide at 3:04 PM. Weather conditions are expected to be partly cloudy with a steady southwest breeze, which should improve fishing conditions.
### Fish Activity
The past few days have seen a mix of fish activity, but things are looking up. Bonito fishing has been very good, with numerous fish caught very close to home, often right in the harbor. Some really big false albacore (albies) and bluefish have also been spotted, which is a promising sign for the ongoing Martha's Vineyard Derby.
### Fish Caught
Yesterday, anglers reported catching several bonito, some of which were quite large. There were also instances of albies popping up, although they remain challenging to catch due to their preference for tiny baits like juvenile bay anchovies. Bluefish are abundant, particularly around the eastern side of the island, with schools concentrated near the beach and around Great Point.
### Best Lures and Bait
For targeting bonito and albies, using small, shiny lures that mimic their natural prey is key. Bubblegum-pink paddletails and epoxy jigs have been effective. For bluefish, larger lures such as spoons and plugs can work well. Bait-wise, mackerel, squid, and bunker are providing plentiful forage for stripers, so using these or lures that mimic them can be fruitful.
### Hot Spots
Two hot spots to consider are the harbor area around Martha's Vineyard, where bonito and albies have been active, and the eastern side of the island, particularly around Great Point and Sankaty, where bluefish and bonito are concentrated. The Cape side of Vineyard Sound has been quiet, so it's best to focus on the island's waters.
With the right gear and knowledge of the local conditions, you should have a productive day on the waters of Martha's Vineyard. Good luck, and tight lines
