From the Archives: Squidalicious Nights from 2012

With recent squid crease fly posts in the middle of winter, I just had to resurrect some archival photos (taken by Dave Skok and myself). Back in the summer of 2012, we had fantastic night fishing, using squid imitations. I remember using squid crease flies exclusively. See the original post here.

Home Fishing

August Flats Fishing

Tons of small stripers on the flats. Larger fish arrived when the water got higher. Good day with multiple fish landed, all on a green crab fly.

Stripers on Fiberglass

 Strong fish, limber rod, tons of fun!

Weak Tides and Blindcasting

 Neighbourhood slots!

Stripers Back in Boston

Nice striper activity in Boston Harbor... Great time to be fishing!

Boston Harbor Winter View

Strong Currents

Blind casting still produces...Nice tide, strong current, feisty fish.

Touch of Purple (Deceiver)

Stripers on Graphite and Glass

Consistent action continues...

Sightcast is On!

Very nice conditions on the flats today, and plenty of shots!

Home Fishing

Good times...decent numbers of fish around!

The Season is On...

Home Fishing

Schoolies on the SW blow!

Gurgler & Floating Line

Tons of small bait around the house, with schoolie stripers going wild.

Flashback

Sunrise in Winthrop, time to fish... Photographed on this very day, in 2012.

Blitz Action with 5wt

Insane action this evening, all small fish. I used a 5wt today. Landed around 40 and left...it was still going!

Smaller and Feisty

It's been very windy and murky with recent blows. The fish are still plentiful, even though smaller in size lately. Still good fun on a 6wt.

Sunny Day Fishing

I was hoping to hit the flats again, but the water was murky. So I fished near my place instead. It was very bright and water got little cleaner on the rising tide. Landed some decent schoolies today on a bright fly.

Unusual Stripes

Striped bass caught today near my place with unusual broken lines...
