あらすじ・解説
For November 21, 2024, the fishing conditions on the Charles River in Boston are looking promising, especially for those targeting holdover striped bass and other species.
### Weather and Tides
Today, the weather is expected to be overcast in the morning and afternoon, which is ideal for fishing. Sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and sunset is at 4:13 PM. Tides are moderate, with a high tide at 9:05 AM and a low tide at 2:45 PM, making the early morning and late evening prime times for fishing.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity in the Charles River has been robust, particularly for striped bass and panfish. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of small, medium, and larger striped bass, as well as crappie and carp. The holdover striped bass are still active, especially around the bridge pilings and deeper waters.
### Best Lures and Bait
For striped bass, soft-plastic baits such as creature baits, crayfish imitations, and ribbontail worms on a weighted hook are highly effective. Topwater baits work well in the evenings near shoreline structures for largemouth bass. Dark-colored jigs along the bridges and pilings, and spoons or weighted crankbaits in deeper waters, are also recommended. For panfish, bright-colored shallow-diving crankbaits and spinnerbaits near downed trees can be productive.
### Hot Spots
Two of the best spots to try your luck are the wider waters of the Lower Basin, especially around the bridge pilings, which provide shade and ambush points for feeding fish. Another productive area is near the underwater holes and ledges where depths can abruptly change, often by as much as 30 feet.
Given the overcast weather and moderate tides, today should be an excellent day to hit the Charles River and catch some of these active fish. Make sure to check the local fishing regulations before you head out.
