In Week 10 of our 2026 Striper Migration Reports, Johnny McIntyre and Matt Haeffner discuss when to look for stripers on squid in the rips of Cape Cod, how Matt’s trip to the Hudson River unfolded, and the arrival of fresh migratory stripers in New Hampshire and Maine last week.
Plus, we get an update on the striper bite in Eastern Connecticut and Long Island Sound from Captain Joe Diorio of Diorio Guide Service, who highlights how a strong herring run this spring has fueled some excellent fishing in his home waters so far.
