Dex ChadseyMFCC member since 2013 The Westport River is an excellent place to explore and fish. I enjoy surfcasting with spinning gear, as well as fly fishing at Westport.In my last report we discussed the West Branch of the Westport River. In this report I will take you for a ...
Dex ChadseyMFCC member since 2013 Westport, located on the western side of Buzzards Bay, is a hidden gem for fishing.

Ryan Collins Last night I spent the hours of 7pm-10pm bouncing Al Gag's Whip-It-Fish along the bottom of an inlet. In inlets on Cape Cod, striped bass often hug tight to the bottom, holding in shallow depressions waiting for a meal to be swept by. A 1.5 ounce Whip-It-Fish or ...
Ryan Collins Before I dive into this report, I would like to mention that not all marinas allow fishing from their docks. I recommend asking your local harbormaster if fishing is allowed, before you step foot onto the docks, especially at night. However, if you can find a lighted marina where ...
