Episode Synopsis

Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Charles River fishing report for Friday, March 28, 2025. Let me tell ya, it's shaping up to be a wicked good day on the water!First off, the tides are looking pretty sweet. We've got a high tide coming in at 11:08 AM, peaking at about 11 feet. Low tide's hitting around 5:21 PM, dropping down to about -1 foot. That's gonna create some nice current for the fish to feed in.Weather-wise, it's a beaut of a day. Sunny skies with temps in the mid-60s. Perfect for wet a line! Sun's coming up at 6:33 AM and setting at 7:06 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to work with.Now, onto the good stuff - the fish! Largemouth and smallmouth bass have been active lately, especially around structure. I've been hearing reports of some nice 3-4 pounders being pulled in near the Watertown Dam and around the BU Bridge. A few lucky anglers even managed to hook into some stripers that have started making their way up from the harbor.For lures, you can't go wrong with a classic Rebel Crickhopper. Those little guys have been absolutely slaying it lately. Soft plastics in dark colors like black and blue have also been producing, especially when worked slowly around bridge pilings. If you're after the big boys, try chunking some live eels or pogies near deeper holes.Bait fishermen have been having luck with nightcrawlers and shiners, particularly for yellow perch and crappie. There's been a decent catfish bite too, if you're looking to bring home some fillets for the fryer.As for hot spots, I'd recommend trying your luck around the Museum of Science. There's some nice deep water there that holds fish, especially as it warms up in the afternoon. The area near the Esplanade is another good bet, with plenty of structure for bass to hide around.Remember folks, this is urban fishing at its finest. Be mindful of the rowers and other boats out there. And hey, if you see me out on the water, give a holler! Tight lines, everyone!This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
