We woke up to a cold, clear January morning on-Island, light northwest breeze and that sharp winter bite in the air. According to tide-forecast dot com, Oak Bluffs is seeing a morning high around 4:49 a.m. and a low at 10:08 a.m., with another modest high late afternoon, so those first and last couple hours of moving water are your best bet. Sunrise is right around 7:00 a.m. and sunset about 4:30–4:40 p.m., so you don’t get much daylight to work with.

This is Artificial Lure with your Martha’s Vineyard fishing report.

We’re locked in a classic Vineyard winter pattern now: cold, clear, and breezy with a light northwest wind and air temps bouncing in the low to mid‑30s along the south shore.

According to CapeTides, Vineyard Sound is running a pretty standard set today: a predawn **low** around...

We’re in the deep off‑season now, but there’s still some salt left for the die‑hards. Around Martha’s Vineyard, water temps are cold and the inshore bite has mostly slid into winter mode: think holdover striped bass in the back ponds and a few stubborn tog on the rock piles if you can get a boat or a calm window.

Tides today on the Vineyard run a classic two‑high, two‑low cycle. CapeTides shows a nearby pattern of an early pre‑dawn high, a...

We’re on the back side of the new moon, and CapeTides and Surfline’s Lucy Vincent tables show modest, even tides today, with an early-morning high around first light and another late-afternoon bump. That gives you two solid windows: the dawn push and the last couple hours before dark, when current tightens around the rocks and rips.

CapeTides notes sunrise right around 7:00 a.m. and sunset a little before 4:15 p.m., so it’s a short-light day. Air temps are sitting in the low 40s, light...

We’re sliding into true off‑season now, and as On The Water’s Cape Cod report points out, the stripers and albies are long gone and saltwater options are thinning, but there’s still enough around the Island to scratch the itch if you pick your spots and your windows.

According to CapeTides’ Martha’s Vineyard tables, we’ve got your classic two‑high, two‑low cycle, with modest 3‑foot swings. Plan to fish the last two hours of the incoming and the first of the outgoing around...

We’re in true shoulder season now. Most of the schools of big striped bass have pushed well south, and the funny fish are long gone, but there’s still life if you know where to look and you’re willing to grind.

According to CapeTides and NOAA, Vineyard tides today run on a small winter swing: early **low around first light**, building to a modest **midday high**, then easing back late afternoon. That makes the **last two hours of the flood and first of t...

We’re sliding into that late‑fall, early‑winter pattern now. According to the National Weather Service marine forecast for Vineyard Sound and Nantucket Sound, we’ve got cold air, northwest breeze building to small‑craft conditions offshore, and water temps in the low to mid‑40s. That’s bundle‑up weather, but it can still fish.

CapeTides and Lobsterville Beach tide charts show a morning high around nine‑thirty with about a four‑foot swing, then dropping out through late morning and early afternoon. Surfline’s Lucy Vincen...

We’re in the late‑fall grind now, and the ocean’s feeling it. Water temps are cold, bait’s thinned out, and most of the big migratory stripers and blues have already slid south, leaving us with holdover schoolies, tog, and bottom fish for those still willing to bundle up.

Tides around the Island today run on a standard two‑high, two‑low cycle; CapeTides shows early‑morning high followed by a strong falling tide through mid‑morning for the Vineyard region, with the second high late a...

We’re into the late-fall lull now, but there’s still life in the water if you play the tides and slow things down. According to CapeTides for the Vineyard, we’re on a mid-range cycle with a pre-dawn low and a late-morning high, so the **first light flood** and the **evening drop** are your best bets for any kind of bite. CapeTides also notes short daylight, with sunrise right around 7 a.m. and sunset just after 4 p.m., so you don’t get many prime windows—make ’em cou...

We’ve slid into true winter mode, and the island is fishing like it. Expect cold air, a stiff northwest bite at times, and water temps low enough that every strike feels earned. Skies are generally clear behind a recent front, so it’s a bright, chilly pattern with a good chance of those crisp, glassy mornings and breezy afternoons.

Tides around the Vineyard today are running on a typical early‑December cycle: a predawn low, a mid‑morning push, another drop mid‑afternoon, then an evening floo...
