Bass and blues are biting

Striped bass and bluefish were biting along East Beach in Charlestown, RI today, says Robin Nash of Quonny Bait & Tackle.

Snapper bluefish were biting in Quonochontaug Pond in Charlestown, and scup have been biting on the flood tide there, she said.

In nearby Connecticut, Pat Abate of Rivers End Tackle says, “The Race was good this week when you can get there and again better at night; Bartletts Reef was the same at night drifting eels.

“Bluefish have been thicker at the Race and Plum Gut this week with some fast top water action at the Gut.”
