Seasonal Activity Chart
Haddock
Plymouth, Massachusetts, offers some excellent haddock fishing grounds, particularly from spring through fall. The key here is understanding the haddock's seasonal forage. In the spring, they'll be keyed in on smaller crustaceans, so smaller jigs and bait presentations often work best. As the water warms, sand eels and other larger baitfish become prevalent. Focus your efforts on Stellwagen Bank and other offshore humps and ledges. Water temperature and current play a significant role in haddock location. Don't be afraid to adjust your depth frequently, even throughout the day. A fish finder is essential to locate schools and structure. For shore access, consider the piers in Plymouth Harbor for early season action, though boat access will significantly expand your options. Remember to check local regulations for size and bag limits before heading out.
