The fish Block Island anglers chase year-round, inshore and off:
Block Island sits in the rich water between Long Island and the Rhode Island coast, and its reefs and the Southwest Ledge are famous for big striped bass — night-time eeling and trolling the rips here have produced some of the largest cow bass in the Northeast. Fluke fishing over the surrounding sand is excellent in summer, and the island's beaches give surfcasters a genuine shot at trophy stripers and hard-charging bluefish. Albies and bonito add a fast late-summer fishery.
