Cool pic of a light tackle striped bass!
Dan coming up to a Newburyport Charter to put a hurting on schoolies!
Jeff here with the first striped bass to fall to a mackerel on Manolin in 2017. He also caught the first keeper last year!
You must have a beard apparently to fish on Manolin Charters in Newburyport!
Gregg with a nice 27" one of the first casts of the day!!!
Martin coming all the way from England to pull on Merrimack River striped bass!
The fish finder has been lit up like this for days when fishing Newburyport, Plum Island and Salisbury.

Nick with his first Newburyport striper of 2017!
As the pictures and videos show it has been a great past two weeks! We have been putting a beat down on small stripers (literally caught 600 this week), catching big numbers of enormous cod, and feeding families with haddock! We have also managed to find some time to go get the first mackerel of the year and find the first keeper striped bass!
The schoolie trips are coming to an end this week and we will start to venture out to target more quality striped bass using live bait. Thank you to everyone who has came thus far! Even though they are small, catching fish every time you cast is a riot! It has been a lot of fun, great way to start off the season, and as always I have made new friends!
Now is the time to book your Newburyport Charter Fishing Boat people, do not wait as I have only a few (morning) dates available from now through mid July.
Tight Lines,
