Local Species Insights: Striped Bass
Striped bass are the premier gamefish in the Hingham area, known for their strong fights and excellent table fare.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When booking with Blueline Fishing Charters, plan to arrive at the designated meeting point about 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and bring sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen). The boat is equipped with safety gear and basic amenities, but you may want to bring your own food and drinks for the trip. Captain David recommends bringing a camera to document your catches and a small cooler if you plan to keep fish for the table (following all local regulations). Morning trips often provide the best fishing conditions, but afternoon charters can be productive as well depending on tides and weather patterns.
