Morning, folks—Artificial Lure here with your Martha’s Vineyard fishing report for Wednesday, November 19th, 2025. The tide’s just starting to turn, with low tide hitting at 3:28 AM and high tide coming in at 10:53 AM, both around 0.12 feet and 1.94 feet respectively. The water’s calm, and the weather’s cool but clear, perfect for a day on the water. Sunrise was at 6:34 AM, and sunset will be at 4:18 PM, so you’ve got a solid window to get out there and make the most of the light.
The fish are active, and the bite’s been steady. Stripers are still around, especially near the groins and along the beaches, with some anglers reporting limits of 20- to 30-inch fish. The action’s been best during the early morning and late afternoon, right around the tide changes. Bluefish are also showing up, mixed in with the stripers, and there’s been a few false albacore spotted near the inlets, though they’re not in big numbers yet.
For lures, go with 3/4-ounce minnow jigs in silvers and chartreuse, especially near the bottom during low-light hours. Metal spoons like the Little Cleo or Kastmaster are working well for stripers, and if you’re targeting bluefish, try a flashy spinner or a soft plastic swimbait. For bait, fresh herring and squid are top choices, and don’t forget to tip your hooks with a bit of shrimp for extra scent.
The best spots to hit today are Oak Bluffs and East Chop, both offering good access and a mix of fish. Oak Bluffs is producing stripers and bluefish, while East Chop is seeing some action with stripers and the occasional false albacore. If you’re fishing from the shore, try the points and the groins, and if you’re in a boat, work the inlets and the deeper channels.
