Martha's Vineyard Late Fall Fishing Report with Artificial Lure

# Artificial Lure's Martha's Vineyard Fishing Report – Saturday, November 29, 2025

Good morning, folks! Artificial Lure here with your Saturday fishing report for Martha's Vineyard and the surrounding waters.

Let's start with the conditions. Sunrise cracked at 6:46 AM this morning, and we're looking at sunset around 4:13 PM—so you've got a solid window if you get out early. The tide chart shows us high tide at 6:36 AM and 4:02 PM, with lows at 4:59 AM and noon. That midday low around 12:02 PM is going to be key for structure fishing.

Now, the water temperature's holding steady in the low 50s—perfect for late-season activity. Over in Edgartown, the commercial fleet's been pulling in solid numbers of sea scallops and sea bass. One of the local harvesters mentioned oyster quality is the best it's been in years, and he's been pulling 800 bivalves a day when conditions allow.

For fish activity right now, we're seeing strong Dungeness crab action. If you're setting pots around Edgartown Harbor and Nantucket Sound, fresh chicken necks and squid are your go-to baits. Reports from the past week show anglers pulling consistent limits from the deeper channels.

For your lure selection, bring pink and chartreuse Buzz Bombs if striped bass show up—they're still aggressive this time of year. For bottom-dwelling species, small white grubs and sand shrimp pieces will do the trick. If you're a bait angler, cured roe under a float is absolutely deadly.

As for hot spots today, I'd suggest hitting Lobsterville Beach at first light—you've got good structure there and the early tide swing should push baitfish in. Secondly, check out the deeper channels around Woods Hole. That area holds keeper-sized bottom fish and occasional strays from the offshore population.
