Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of small, medium, and larger striped bass. Holdover stripers are still active in the river, and the increased current from the recent rains should enhance their activity. ### Best Lures and Bait For striped bass, soft plastic baits and jigs have been working well. The area around bridge pilings, especially near the Watertown Dam and Boston Harbor, is a productive spot. Crankbaits along woody debris near the lower portions of backwaters are also effective. For panfish, such as crappie and white perch, light tackle with small pieces of worm or waxworms is recommended. ### Hot Spots - The area around bridge pilings in the Charles River Basin is highly recommended. This spot tends to have very light fishing pressure and can yield good catches. - The stretch of the river near the Charles River Dam and the Mystic River confluence is another hot spot, especially with the increased current attracting more fish. ### Additional Tips With the cooler water temperatures, fish are concentrating on woody habitats and areas with moderate current. For those targeting carp, which are the true heavyweights in the Charles River, using corn or dough baits can be effective. Overall, the conditions are favorable for a successful fishing outing on the Charles River today. Make sure to check the local fishing regulations and enjoy the day on the water.

In addition to stripers and bluefish, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, crappie, and yellow perch are also present, though they are less active as the water cools down.
