Fishing in New Bedford, Massachusetts, United States

Ok so while it may not be the “best spot” it’s a great place for beginners and vets alike. It’s a chill place with deep water access (pier) and the best part is when the stripers run u don’t really need anything. Best bait is a cut (or live if u can catch) mackerel drifter with the current from the current. Simple but effective. Also good are savage sandeel, al gags whip it fish, sebile stick shade, and the like. Parking right up and great spots from that area up and down. Scusset beach is also fire. Any questions send me a dm and I’ll try my best to help y’all out

I grew up on this pond and fished it every off a John boat. The best spots are 1-left side half way down you’ll see a house through the cleared trees and there is a fallen tree in the middle of a stone wall that wraps around the property line about 20’ off shoreline. I’ve pulled a 7lb, 5lb and numerous over 2 fishing that area especially in pre spawn months. Caught off suspending jerk bait or watermelon lizard/red shad worm. 2-The house that is on the water has a concrete structure along the waterline, I’ve pulled a lot of bass along that area and was always my second go to 3-dock at the very end of pond 4-the cove on the other side of peninsula opposite of where you fish offshore always held some decent fish especially when it’s windy it’s a good spot to hide out and catch some decent fish without getting blown around 5-there is a cluster of big rocks deep in middle off pond more or less across from house with concrete wall, if you can find the spot you can pull some fatty’s
