Striped Bass Fishing – The Heart of Rhode Island Sportfishing

Striped Bass have long been the pride of Rhode Island and the signature catch aboard the Windy. Known for their power, size, and relentless fight, these fish keep anglers coming back season after season in search of that true trophy — the kind of bass that tests both your strength and your skill. It’s not uncommon to hook up with fish in the 30- to 40-pound range, and every year we see giants that push even bigger numbers.

Striper fishing is what we do best. Our crew’s years of experience and deep knowledge of local waters consistently put anglers on fish, often resulting in full limits and unforgettable battles. The season kicks off in early May and runs through mid-December, offering steady action from spring through the cooler fall months.

Many trips combine Striped Bass with Fluke, Sea Bass, Porgies, or even Sharks, giving you the chance to experience multiple fisheries in one outing — fast-paced, high-energy, and loaded with variety. Whether you’re after that dream catch or just out for incredible rod-bending fun, Striped Bass fishing aboard the Windy delivers some of the best action anywhere on the East Coast.
