  • Vineyard Winter: Small Lures, Slow Tactics for Holdover Stripers and Pond Trout
    Dec 5 2025
    Artificial Lure here with your Martha’s Vineyard fishing report.

    We’ve slid into true winter mode, and the island is fishing like it. Expect cold air, a stiff northwest bite at times, and water temps low enough that every strike feels earned. Skies are generally clear behind a recent front, so it’s a bright, chilly pattern with a good chance of those crisp, glassy mornings and breezy afternoons.

    Tides around the Vineyard today are running on a typical early‑December cycle: a predawn low, a mid‑morning push, another drop mid‑afternoon, then an evening flood. Think of your best windows as first light into the late‑morning high, and again late afternoon into dusk. Sunrise is right around 7:00 a.m. local, with sunset coming early, around 4:15 p.m., so the prime bite windows are short and focused.

    Saltwater action is very much a holdover and cold‑water game now. Most of the migratory stripers are long gone, but a few resident schoolies are still tucked into the warmer, darker backwaters—think brackish ponds and muddy creeks rather than the open south shore surf. When they chew, it’s usually on the softer parts of the tide: the top of the flood or the first of the ebb, especially if the wind lays down. Flounder and the odd winter flattie are possible on the deeper, sheltered edges, and there’s always the chance of a surprise cod or pollock offshore for anyone jumping on a winter headboat out of the Cape.

    As for recent catches, the island chatter has shifted from fall blitzes to “one or two fish if you work” reports. Anglers poking around Vineyard Haven Harbor and the Lagoon are still picking at small stripers, mostly undersized but spirited, and a handful of anglers soaking bait off the Oak Bluffs side have seen some mixed flounder and sea robins on the better tide. Freshwater is quietly stealing the show: stocked trout, pickerel, and cold‑happy largemouth in the inland ponds are producing the most consistent bend in the rod, with browns and rainbows chasing slow‑rolled spoons and small jigs.

    Lure selection needs to match the cold, sluggish fish. In the salt, scale way down: small soft‑plastic paddle tails and sand‑eel imitations on light jigheads, worked painfully slow near the bottom, will out‑produce big plugs now. Slim metal like Kastmasters or Deadly Dicks, again fished slow with long pauses, will pick off both holdover bass and any lingering herring or mackerel‑chasing predators. For bait, nothing beats fresh or salted clams and sea worms on a high‑low rig for flounder, and small chunks of herring or squid will draw the odd striper that’s still hanging around. In the ponds, tiny hair jigs, micro plastics on 1/16‑ounce heads, and small gold or silver spoons are the ticket, with nightcrawlers or shiners for those fishing bait.

    A couple of local hot spots to circle for this stretch: Vineyard Haven Harbor and the Lagoon outflow are worth your predawn and dusk efforts for holdover stripers, especially on that incoming tide when slightly warmer ocean water pushes in. Down‑island, the Edgartown Harbor and Katama Bay edges, particularly the deeper channels out of the wind, can still cough up a schoolie or a cold‑stunned flounder if you bounce bait or jigs slowly along the bottom. If you’re willing to pivot to freshwater, Duarte’s Pond and the state‑stocked kettle ponds inland are quietly giving up trout and bass to anyone who walks the banks and keeps moving.

    Bundle up, fish slow, and think small and subtle—this is the time of year when one well‑placed cast can make the whole day.

  • Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report December 4th 2025 - Stripers, Flounder, and Tides
    Dec 4 2025
    # Artificial Lure's Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report

    Good morning, anglers. This is Artificial Lure coming to you with today's fishing report for Martha's Vineyard on this Thursday, December 4th, 2025.

    Let's start with the conditions. We're looking at partly cloudy skies with temps sitting around 35 to 41 degrees—bundle up out there. The wind is light from the southeast, so we've got favorable conditions for getting on the water. Sunrise came early this morning, and you've got until around 4:15 PM to make the most of your daylight.

    **Tidal Conditions:**
    We're in the middle of our winter tide cycle here. Oak Bluffs is showing a high tide coming in around midday, with lows earlier this morning. If you're planning a trip today, focus your efforts around the slack tide periods—that's typically when the fish bite best in these waters.

    **Recent Activity:**
    The Martha's Vineyard Times is reporting that shotgun season just opened Monday, and while that's for deer, I mention it because fewer hunters in the woods means the ecosystem's still adjusting. What that means for us fishermen is stable conditions. The recent nor'easters pushed a lot of sand and debris, which should be concentrating baitfish in specific zones.

    **What's Biting:**
    This time of year, you're looking at striped bass and winter flounder in the shallows. Soft-shell clams are still your best live bait—they're plentiful around Martha's Vineyard's estuaries. For artificials, go with small to medium plugs in white and chartreuse. The water's cold, so fish are hugging structure.

    **Hot Spots:**
    First, Menemsha Bight on the western shore—it's protected, deeper, and holds stripers year-round. Second, the areas around Chilmark Pond where recent dredging has opened up natural breaches. Those cuts funnel baitfish and create feeding zones.

    **Best Bets Today:**
    Focus your efforts between 10 AM and 2 PM when the light is strongest and the tide's moving. Work the edges of channels where deeper water meets shallow flats.

    That's your report for December 4th. Thanks for tuning in, and remember to subscribe for daily updates on what's biting around the Vineyard.

  • Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report: Tides, Winds, and Lures for Stripers and Blues
    Dec 3 2025
    # Artificial Lure's Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report - December 3rd, 2025

    Well hey there, folks! Artificial Lure here with your Wednesday morning fishing report from beautiful Martha's Vineyard, and let me tell you, we've got some interesting conditions shaping up today.

    First off, the tides are working in our favor. We're looking at a low tide of negative 0.02 feet at 6:13 AM—that's already passed—with a nice high tide coming in at 11:26 AM. That mid-morning push is going to move some baitfish around and get the stripers and blues active. Don't sleep on that window between 10 and noon, folks.

    Weather-wise, we're starting mostly cloudy this morning, but clearing to mostly sunny by afternoon. Temps are hovering around 44 to 48 degrees, so bundle up. The real story is the wind—we're looking at northwest winds at 15 to 20 miles per hour with gusts up to 40 mph early on, then decreasing to 25 mph. That's going to chop up the water a bit, but it'll push baitfish toward the shallows where the gamefish feed.

    Now, fishing activity around the Vineyard has been solid lately. We've had reports of good pickerel catches in the ponds—folks are having success with live shiners and small soft plastics. In the salt, the striped bass have been cooperative, especially around the structure near Edgartown and Vineyard Haven. You want to focus on the channels where the current flows hardest during that tidal change.

    For lures, I'm recommending small to medium topwater plugs in the early morning—something around 3 to 4 inches to match the local baitfish profile. If the bite slows mid-day, drop down to soft plastics like 4-inch paddle-tail shads in pearl or chartreuse. For bait fishing, fresh herring and sand eels are your ticket. The tackle shops on the island should have good stock this time of year.

    Two hotspots I'm eyeing today: First, Vineyard Haven Harbor during that high tide push—the deeper channels there concentrate stripers. Second, hit the flats near Edgartown when the sun comes out and warms things up a bit. The structure there holds bass all day.

    Remember to check current regulations and get your licenses squared away before heading out.
