A few people are catching Bass. Your going to have to put your time in and fish at night. Blues are around the entire island. Bonito are around in good numbers. False Albacore are here but very few and only a couple have been caught. Tons of bait. Butterfish a couple schools of peanut Bunker are around. Nice to see them have not seen them in a few years. Tons of Sandeels and there in tons of different sizes. Squid in edgartown harbor. Some days they are pretty thick. Beach fishing is slow to moderate. Boat fishing is good. Hopefully the nor easter we are going to get cools the waters down.

Fishing in the day time other than by boat has slowed down. By day time Blues are around but not abundant. V.H harbor and Edgartown outer harbor is your best bet for Blues. Some are hitting Menemsha and Wasque point. Bass at night has been pretty good even in the hot waters. Bait fisherman on south beach are coming in with some good reports. Menemsha channel has some nice Bass. Wasque and East beach are doing well also. fluke fishing has been good, but some days are a struggle. Tons of 10 inch sea Bass and sea robins making it difficult sometimes. Tuna report has been getting better. Reports of some schoolie Bluefin along the 20 fathom curve. Have not recieved any reports from the dump. Temp edges have filled in at the canyons and are not fishing as well as the shipping lanes. Good reports at the shipping lanes temp breaks. Bigeye Tuna, Yellowfin, Mahi and a nice sized blue Marlin. Tons of bait around the island. Squid are still being caught at night in the harbor.

Fishing is good one day and slow the next. Both beach and boat. Gay head and east beach had some freshly migrating fish move in. So it is a little better in those areas. fluking is good. JFL landed a 13.5 pounder. I have been on a couple trips this year and have boated fluke in the 7 and 8 pound range. Sea Bass is getting better. Tatoug slowed down. Bluefish are around the hole island. most being in the 1 to 2 pound range, but there are some 6 to 8 pounders getting caught. Night fishing for Stripers is your best bet. Water is warming up and there is tons of bait this year.

| Shore fishing is still good. Fresh fish still arriving on all shores. The fish are mostly in the teens,they are healthy and covered in sealice. blue fishing is slower than average for this time of year. Water temps just hit 60 degrees. Fishing was early but the big waves of fish are coming in late this season. Night fishing is getting better than the day. Tons of bait and the Squid fishing is still good. Good reports from dogfish bar not to big but plenty of fish. Wasque,East beach couple of fish in the day better at night. bommbers and darters. North shore and south shore have plenty of fish. Most fish are right around keeper size for the pluggers. bait guys are getting fish in the 20 pound range.
