Well this wraps up the season. The cold winter air is here. The last couple weeks there have been pollock,herring and Mackerel in Edgartown Harbor. This season was not the best, but i have plenty of good fishing memories. Hopefully enough to last the winter. I am really thankfull to all my customers and charters. With out your support i could not do this. Thank you for everything.
Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out  www.mvderby.com for all your derby info!!!! The derby is on! Fishing is pretty good. The board is changing everyday. The leaders are still beatable. So get fishing. Shore Bonito are here but in small numbers. There only have been three weighed in. Boat Bonito is getting better. In the last three days, it has been good. Beach and boat albies are much better seems like that's the most plentiful species. You see them but does not mean you can always catch them! Shore Bass has been good, lots of reports of small fish everywhere. Bluefishing has been good both from the beach and the boat. Good luck and be safe!

Albies are slow. I now of only five being caught and it was over a months time. A couple of reports of Bonito being landed in Menemsha. Thats the only beach report. From the boat for Bonito the hooter is still the best. East chop,O.B ferry terminal and hedge fence are yielding some reports. Blues by boat are ok and some reports are coming in from chappy beaches. Bass is night time with some OK reports from the north shore. Boat Bass the hooter and gay head. BFT are still at the hooter. Offshore is slow unless you go to the canyons. Found some gear in the se corner of the dump. Plenty of Mahi around the hi flyers. Tons of blue sharks out there Maco's are slow. they are there but way to many bluedogs. Every time i have been offshore i have at least run into two white marlin.

What a crazy year! Football blue-fin tuna have been at the hooter and being caught regularly for about two weeks now. White marlin at the owl and Gordan's Gully!, for well over a month. Two state record sharks during the monster shark tourney. a 500 pound porbeagle and a 650 pound thresher shark.  Albies have arrived august 1st @#%@#  Whats crazier than that?  I no a 81.88 world record Striped Bass!!!! holy- holy cow!!!! There have been two boat Stripers caught in the 50's. One by Matt a 52 pounder and the other by Evan a 50.80.  Bonito are pretty thick out at the hooter. Beach fishing from the shore has been slow here from the day. Some okay reports from night fishing.
As far as i know. There has been no shore Bonito. Albies have been taken from the beach. plenty of bait. Menemsha has been load with Mackerel, a first in fifteen years. Squid are around the hole island and in the harbors. Another good year for catching them. Earlier this week the weather was not so good. This weekend will be a nice one.

Sorry for being tardy with our report. No excuse but between the 4th of July, charters and the shark tournament, it's been a busy few weeks. Fishing is holding up pretty good. The Hooter has been good for Bass, bluefish and Bonito are starting to filter in as well. Still a lot of bigger Bluefish at Horseshoe Shoal and Bonito are filtering in there too. Plenty of bait including Herring and Mackerel dropping out of Menemsha and the Striped Bass fishing at Lobsterville and points along the north shore are good. No reports of big fish but fish to keeper size are being caught, primarily at dawn & dusk. No reports of Bonito up there yet. Also some decent surf fishing at spots along the south side. It's a slow pick at night and Eels are the most productive but fish to 15lbs are being caught. Bluefish along the beach are hard to come by this year but there are some fish around. fluke fishing has been fair to good in deeper water around Tom's Shoal and holes along the north shore. Mo Ho fluke rigs dressed with Squid have been killers. The tuna bite has picked up again south of the island and a report today of bluefins inside of Nomans. Still reports of White Marlin being sighted south of the Island. The Bluefin bite off Chatham is still good with fish up to 60".  Squidding has been excellent and we currently have plenty of fresh Squid, Mackerel and Bunker but it will not last long. Finally, our good friend Evan Metropolis caught his 50lber on Monday while out with Lev Wodlytka-congratulations!

Some nice fish are being caught around the island. A thirteen year old client of mine landed a 40pounder off my boat. Matt from Dicks bait and tackle landed his first fifty!! Congrats Mattie! Beach fishing is doing good also, mostly at night. Dogfish bar is fishing good also ,Lobsterville and Menemsha. Carlin from the shop beached a nice 36.4 pounder. Middle ground rip has Squid on it and fishing good. Toms shoal is also fishing good.

Fishing has been up and down. It is getting better than the last week and a half. Wasque has been hot and cold. Seems like one day is good and the next slow. Squids slow, there here but not in huge numbers. Sandeels are everywhere. Bass are here and still some nice Bluefish. fluke is slow. Tons of spiny dogfish in the sound, probably the reseaon. Black seabass is good.

Blue fishing is crazy over at Wasque!!!! Bass are around the island. It was slow for a while on chappy for the Bass. To many Bluefish around. Now starting to get some good Bass reports. Early in the morning and a while after dusk. Menemsha is doing good. Bass in the ponds but Sengy is slow. Boat Bass fishing is slow. They are around but you have to work for them. sea Bass is doing very good. fluke is slow. Squids in the  harbor
