Summary
Friday September on our Inshore Fishing Charter brought perfect conditions on Hingham Bay. After some morning rain, the weather cleared beautifully, giving us slicked out seas by midday. With Captain Horte's local knowledge of Hingham's productive waters, we focused on drift fishing and bottom fishing techniques, mixing in some casting with lures. The structure and current breaks in Hingham Bay hold plenty of baitfish, which the stripers follow. We worked different spots around the bay, targeting the areas where striped bass feed, resulting in consistent action throughout our 5-hour private charter. Whether you're looking for a family-friendly fishing experience or a more technical angling adventure, our guided trips consistently produce results using proven techniques matched to local conditions.

Local Tips & Conditions
Hingham Bay offers excellent inshore fishing with its mix of structure types, current edges, and baitfish concentrations. The bay's protected waters make for comfortable fishing even when offshore conditions are rough. Fall fishing here is particularly productive as striped bass feed aggressively before their migration south. Morning and evening tide changes typically produce the best action, but Captain Horte knows how to find feeding fish throughout the day by reading water movement and identifying productive structure.
Water depths range from shallow flats to deeper channels, allowing us to adapt our approach based on where fish are holding. During warmer months, we often find stripers chasing bait near surface structure, while cooler periods may require working deeper water with jigging techniques. The varied bottom structure throughout Hingham Bay and surrounding areas provides consistent fishing opportunities as conditions change through the season.

The boat is fully equipped with quality rods, reels, tackle and bait, plus safety equipment exceeding Coast Guard requirements. We recommend bringing sun protection, weather-appropriate clothing, non-marking shoes, snacks and drinks (no glass containers). A cooler with ice is provided for your catch. Photography is encouraged, and our stable platform makes for great fishing action shots. For your comfort, there's a marine head (toilet) onboard.
