Bluefish
Plymouth's coastal waters offer exciting opportunities for bluefish anglers. These aggressive feeders are drawn to the area by abundant baitfish populations, making for some explosive topwater action. The best time to target bluefish here is typically from late spring through early fall, when water temperatures rise and baitfish schools move closer to shore. Look for them blitzing on schools of menhaden or sand eels. A key to success is matching your lure or bait to the prevalent forage. For boat access, the town offers several ramps. A practical tip is to focus your efforts around rocky outcroppings and points where bluefish often ambush prey. Be prepared for fast-moving schools and bring wire leaders, as bluefish are notorious for their sharp teeth. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can fluctuate.
