What can I catch fly fishing in Massachusetts?
Inland, the Deerfield and Swift Rivers hold wild and stocked brown and rainbow trout that fish year-round thanks to cold tailwater flows. On the coast, Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket offer outstanding striped bass, bluefish, and bonito on the fly.
Where can you fly fish for striped bass in Massachusetts?
The tidal flats and channels around Monomoy Island in Chatham are legendary for sight-fishing big striped bass in summer, while the broader Cape Cod and island shorelines produce stripers and bluefish from June through November.
