We did well on Saturday and Sunday right out of the chute! Bayrat fire tiger, J-11 perch were best for sticks, some natural dark green and dark purple spoons did ok too. Ended boating 3 kings lost a couple more and about 20 browns also caught 2 real nice small mouth bass west of the chute. Weather turned on us Sunday it Monday so we couldn’t keep fishing if it wasn’t a 5 hour drive I’d be coming back on the weekends! Good luck the rest of the year to everyone!

Hello everyone, it’s getting to that time again! My family and I are planning our annual trip up to Fairhaven, we’ve been coming up about 10 years now. I know every year is different and I don’t expect this one to be any “different” but we’ve held off on booking a place to stay due to the lasting winter weather and the dates that we can come up. Right now we are shooting for 4-13/4-16. We are coming up from Mass and everything here is pretty much iced over still. We stay at anchor resort and dock the boat as well for the convenience. Does anyone have any thoughts on the bay being thawed by then? Also will the damages to the chute have any affect on us accessing lady O. I know there are a lot of factors that effect these things just looking for some advice from people who live in the area. I’m assuming that the water off the state launch will give us access to the lake by then? Thanks ahead for any information! Keeping our fingers crossed that the weather starts changing for the warmer ! Cheers, matt

Thanks BaitNH I will give him a call!

Hi everyone been coming up for about 10 years now we will be up on the 19th of this month hopefully the weather warms up! Question for anyone who has information, we have been using inline planers for years now and have an array of diff kinds from yellow bird, sidewinder, off-shore, but have recently purchased a mast. We are waiting on our Otter Boats we ordered for weeks but are still on back order. Starting to get worried they won't come in on time does anyone have any suggestions on other boards? Or know of availability of boards seems like everywhere I look everything is sold out? Thanks

Thanks Mike, that's what I was hoping to hear. Its nice to go out and catch a mixed bag of fish. Cheers, Matt

Anyone targeting any kings yet? Coming up the 7th staying until the 11th would love to get into some king action!

Hello Fairhaven fishermen, we have been fishing Fairhaven for about 5 years now and usually come about the 2nd week of April. Due to the WINTER weather we and scheduling we are forced to push back the trip to the first week of May. We like to target browns n kings close to shore. It seems like May is late for tight shore trolling anyone have any insight? I know everything is unpredictable but has anyone had success around these dates in the past? We have a 18ft Crestliner and can handle a little snotty water but don't have to much experience trolling deep water. Any info will be greatly appreciated ! Thanks!
