In Week 4 of our Striper Migration Reports, OTW’s Matt Haeffner and Robbie Tartaglia dive into the importance of locating areas with favorable water temperatures and abundant forage before discussing productive strategies for the first stripers of the year in Buzzards Bay.
We also hear from OTW’s Nick Cancelliere on Long Island’s North Shore, where schoolies to 25 pounders are waking up as water temperatures climb in Western Long Island Sound. Then, we skip up the coast to the Ocean State where Dustin Stevens of Rhode Island Kayak Fishing Adventures provides a rundown of his holdover striper techniques, how he targets fresh arrivals, and what’s to come as we approach the new moon in April.
