The mouth of the Housatonic River at Stratford's Short Beach is one of the best places to fish for early season stripers! In the early spring, wintering striped bass drop out of the Housatonic into Long Island Sound. At the same time, crucial forage species like river herring begin their upstream spawning migration. This clash of fish, combined with fresh schoolies arriving daily, makes for some awesome fishing!
Come learn this amazing fishery! No experience necessary. These trips are designed for anglers of all ages, and skill levels. If you need to borrow gear, no problem! Just let us know. We have several 9wt saltwater outfits for you. Feel free to bring surf/spin gear - I'd recommend bringing a spin rod as a backup in case of wind. Waders are a must!
We'll get started at Short Beach at 8 am, on outgoing tide, so we can wade out on the sandbar to the channel. We'll be on the far side of the parking lot!
