This Week's Fishing Forecast
May 8, 2008

From this point forward, it only gets better for saltwater fishermen! We've got a line of migrating stripers moving up the East Coast to Cape Cod waters and beyond, and if they haven’t made it to your home waters yet, you won’t have to wait much longer. There is a massive amount and variety of baitfish moving into the coastal waters of New England, and it’s attracting the hungry bass, bluefish, fluke, flounder, cod and haddock. Read on to find where New England anglers can reap the benefits!
