Striped bass fishing around Prudence Island offers a more secluded alternative to the busier waters of Narragansett Bay. This island, situated in the heart of the bay, provides access to a variety of fishing habitats, from rocky shorelines to sandy beaches and deeper channels. Spring and fall are prime times, as stripers migrate through the bay. Anglers often have success casting artificial lures like swimming plugs and bucktails along the island's western shore, particularly during dawn and dusk. For boaters, targeting structure like submerged rocks and ledges can be productive. A local tip is to pay attention to the moon phase, as stripers often feed more actively during the new and full moons. Access to Prudence Island is primarily via ferry, which limits crowds and maintains a more peaceful fishing experience. The stripers here tend to be a mix of schoolies and larger fish, offering opportunities for both quantity and quality.
