Karen Lynn Charters Tuna, Striped Bass, Cod and Haddock season is underway!
Tuna, Striped Bass, Cod, Haddock and Shark Fishing Gloucester, MA
Karen Lynn Charters season is underway and off to a great start! We have been enjoying excellent bottom fishing for cod and haddock, some of the best haddock fishing I have seen. Non stop action on most trips we have even landed six halibut during the last few trips, from never catching one in the past to this is certainly a trend that I hope continues. The Striped Bass have also arrived off the coast of Gloucester and hopefully lots more will continue to keep coming. Tuna fishing season is now open with a few sightings being had offshore and lots of life and bait shaping up off of Gloucester, MA we are hoping for another great season!

Excellent 2015 charter fishing season aboard Karen Lynn Charters out of Gloucester, Massachusetts! Great all around Tuna, Striped Bass, Haddock and Shark fishing enjoyed by many new and returning clients.
Cod and Haddock Fishing Charters
We started out bottom fishing for Cod and Haddock on May 1, which always creates a fun atmosphere. The fishing was pretty consistent all through the summer. Most trips we are usually anchored up and dropping down rigs baited with clams. You never know what you be reeling up from the deep which keeps things interesting. Almost always we would run into a few Pollock and Cusk to go along with the Cod and Haddock. We also had many trips with Shark encounters. As your reeling up your fish from the bottom they tend to grab it right off the hook or you getting back just the head. Always creates excitement as we keep our shark rod ready to go. We will set someone up in the stand up fighting gear and toss out a bait. More often than not the shark is still hanging around and will take the bait. Makes for a great battle and…(continue reading)
Bluefin Tuna Fishing, Striped Bass, Cod and Haddock Fishing Season Review !
Tuna, Striped Bass, Cod, Haddock, Shark Fishing Gloucester, MA
We enjoyed some great fishing on the Karen Lynn during the season. Starting off in May with excellent ground fishing for Cod and Haddock, many days with great action and bent rods allowing clients to take home some of the tastiest fish the ocean has to offer. On most Cod and Haddock trips we usually had a run in with a shark. Mostly blue sharks but an occasional Porbeagle or Mako shark would show up which can be an excellent fight as well as good table fare, always exciting seeing a big shark swim up behind the boat.
Striped Bass Fishing Gloucester, MA
A great mix of Striped Bass started showing up in late May right behind the mackerel. Creating some fun and exciting action on most trips with great Striped Bass fishing continuing through June and July. With some Monster Striped Bass being landed, some times it takes patience waiting on that big one to come along but it is certainly worth it. Some big Stripers around this season as we landed a few coming close to the 50 pound mark. The coast of Gloucester…(continue reading)
Fishing Charters Out Of Gloucester, MA Karen Lynn
Fishing Charters Gloucester, MA
Seems like the nice weather has come to stay! We have been enjoying some great trips aboard Karen Lynn Charters out of Gloucester, MA. Cod and Haddock Fishing still continues to be pretty good despite the water warming up. Striped Bass trips have been producing pretty good with some monster Stripers being caught, with one client landed a nice 48 inch close to 50lb monster Striped Bass the other day. Striped Bass fishing charters should continue to improve as more fish show up. The Tuna fishing is still a bit behind due to the cold winter we had, expecting that to continue to get better as time goes on. Plenty of great dates left feel free to call me anytime with any questions at all regarding your trip on the Karen Lynn. Thanks

Bluefin Tuna Fishing Charters, Striped Bass, Cod, Haddock and Shark Fishing Season Review
Tuna, Striped Bass, Cod and Haddock Fishing Gloucester, MA
We enjoyed some great fishing on the Karen Lynn during the 2013 season. Starting off in April with excellent ground fishing for Cod and Haddock, many days with great action and bent rods allowing clients to take home plenty of fresh fish, some of the best New England has to offer. Some days you had to bounce around a bit but we always seemed to find some good action, on most Cod and Haddock trips we usually had a run in with a shark or two as there seemed to be a lot of them around. Mostly blue sharks but an occasional Porbeagle or Mako shark would show up which can be an excellent fight as well as good table fare, always exciting seeing a big shark swim up behind the boat.

Tuna, Striped Bass, Cod Fishing Karen Lynn Charters 2012 Season Review!
Gloucester, MA Fishing Charters Karen Lynn
The Karen Lynn enjoyed a great 2012 season! Beautiful North Shore weather was upon us most days creating great times spent on the water. Exceptional amounts of life wherever you went. Large numbers of baitfish, the most I have seen in quite some time. This set the stage for some great fishing action!
Cod and Haddock Gloucester, MA
Ground fishing began mid April with many charters enjoying non stop action reeling up nice New England Cod and Haddock. Most of cod and haddock fishing was done in less than a 150 feet of water which is always nice! These trips always make for great fun as multiple people are fishing at once and usually in competition with one another. Not to mention cod and haddock are some of the best eating fish the ocean has to offer!
Striped Bass Gloucester, MA
Striped Bass fishing off of Gloucester, MA was very productive as well, producing many trophy sized Striped Bass. Striped Bass season starts in June. As the bait starts to show up the Stripers aren’t far behind them. There is nothing like seeing a monster bass come up and crash on your…(continue reading)
Karen Lynn Charters Enjoying Excellent Fishing !
Charter Fishing Gloucester, MA
We have had some great trips these last couple weeks! With groundfishing slowing down we have been enjoying some great Striped Bass fishing. Cant beat it, a very short ride to the fishing grounds with many of the trophy size Stripers starting to move in. Its a great time of year to get out there and enjoy some Striped Bass fishing. With plenty of bait in the area and new bunches of fish showing up everyday. The Stripers are very aggresive this time of year as they move into the area and find the feed. You never know when that fish of a lifetime will come along ! Not to mention the Blue fin tuna are moving into the area as well with more and more showing up each day. There are a large number of whales and bait in the areas the tuna will congregate too. It won’t be long until the tuna bite really starts to heat up ! With many great dates still available feel free to give me a call anytime in regards to booking your 2012 trip with Karen Lynn Charters. Thanks
