あらすじ・解説
As of October 27, 2024, the Charles River in Boston is offering some exciting fishing opportunities despite the cooler autumn weather. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Tidal and Weather Report
The tide is expected to be high around 8:30 AM and low at 2:30 PM, with moderate tidal currents. The weather is forecasted to be partly cloudy with mild temperatures, making it a perfect day for fishing. Sunrise is at 7:05 AM, and sunset will be at 5:34 PM.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a good amount of fish activity, particularly in the early morning and evening hours. Striped bass, bluefish, and even some inshore sharks were active, taking advantage of the transitioning seasons.
### Catch Report
Anglers reported catching several striped bass, with some respectable catches in the 32-36 inch range. Bluefish were also plentiful, and there were reports of crappie moving in closer to downed trees and branches in the effluence with the Muddy River. Other species like largemouth bass, chain pickerel, and black crappie were also caught.
### Best Lures and Bait
For striped bass, soft-plastic baits such as creature baits, crayfish imitations, and ribbontail worms on weighted hooks worked well. Topwater baits were effective in the evenings near shoreline structures. Bright-colored shallow-diving crankbaits and spinnerbaits were successful near downed trees, while dark-colored jigs performed better along the bridges and pilings. For largemouth bass, topwater baits in the evenings near shoreline structures were recommended.
### Hot Spots
The wider waters of the Lower Basin, especially along the bridge pilings, are often hot spots for fishing. These areas provide shade and ambush points for feeding fish. Another good spot is among the downed trees and branches in the effluence with the Muddy River, where crappie tend to congregate.
In summary, the Charles River is in great shape for fishing today. With the right lures and bait, and by targeting the early morning and evening hours, you should have a productive and enjoyable day on the water.
