Striped Bass Showdown: A Thrilling Inshore Adventure on the South Shore

It was a beautiful late-summer day in Hingham, Massachusetts, as we set out with Ian Hernandez and two other guests on a Private 5 To 9 Hour Inshore Charter Trip In South Shore with Blueline Fishing Charters. September is a prime time for inshore fishing around these parts, with the Striped Bass and Bluefish feeding aggressively as the waters start to cool. We had a great mix of techniques lined up, ready to target the various species we might encounter. The skies were partly cloudy, but the water looked fantastic - clear and calm, ideal for the deep-sea, jigging, trolling, and light tackle tactics we had in mind. We wasted no time getting our lines in the water, trying a little bit of everything to see what the fish were keying in on. It wasn't long before Ian's rod bent over, and he was into a nice Striped bass. That fish put up one heck of a fight, stripping line and making some strong runs, but Ian kept his cool and worked it to the boat. We got a few more Stripers in quick succession, along with a couple feisty Bluefish that had the whole crew laughing and cheering. The action stayed steady throughout the day, with everyone getting a chance to wrestle some quality fish. Even though we didn't manage to land any record-breakers, it was still an awesome day on the water. The crew was great, the scenery was beautiful, and we all had a blast just being out there, soaking up the sun and enjoying the company. If you're looking to experience some of the best inshore fishing the South Shore has to offer, I can't recommend Blueline Fishing Charters enough. Whether you're an experienced angler or a total newcomer, this is the perfect way to get out on the water and have an unforgettable time chasing Striped Bass, Bluefish, and more. Book your trip today, and let's go fishing!

Striper Migration Report

From On The Water Magazine:Some extra-large stripers have staged up off New Jersey, while more and bigger fish continue to hit New England. Bunker remains scarce, making live-bait acquisition difficult for anglers, but the stripers have seemed happy to focus on herring and rain bait, which has been abundant.

Captain Dave and his first mate Glenn are amazing! We have done numerous fishing charters and have never experienced the genuine care in ensuring that everyone has an incredible day of fishing as we did with Dave and Glenn. My son wanted to try lobster fishing and they made him feel like a valuable deckhand. He was thrilled! After a successful lobster haul, Captain Dave went an hour over our time to give my son the additional experience of reeling in a large bass. It was incredible; the highlight of our vacation!!! Blueline Fishing Charters has my highest recommendation for a truly amazing fishing experience!

Captain and his mate Steven were amazing. We had so much fun and gained a lot of knowledge from this trip! They were really accommodating and made the whole experience memorable. Hands down the best fishing charter in Boston for in/off shore fishing!

May 14, 2025

Captain Dave helped me and my buddies get onto 3 great bluefish, with plenty of other bites. He allowed us to book with less than 1 hour of notice, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and was priced the best in the area. Would recommend him to new and experienced anglers.

May 14, 2025

Had a great experience with captain Dave after our other captain canceled on us! He was able to get ready last minute and put us on the fish!

May 14, 2025

Great trip with Captain Dave and Steve today. Dave is very knowledgeable about where to find fish in the local waters and we had a great day catching stripers. Highly recommended and will definitely be going again.
