Snowfly Light Tackle & Fly Fishing Charters

Block Island's Premier Light Tackle & Fly Fishing Guide Service.

Block Island Fly Fishing and Light Tackle Charter Guides in Rhode Island.

`RI Captain Greg Snow is a light tackle and Fly Fishing Charters Guide on Block Island in Rhode Island.`

If you are looking for the finest fly fishing and light tackle fishing in Rhode Island then look no farther. My name is Capt. Greg Snow and I would be honored to guide you on a fishing excursion of a lifetime. Some of the most fertile and pristine coastline anywhere along the eastern seaboard consists of the islands, bays and beaches of Rhode Island.

We follow the fish!

Snowfly Charters begins in early May as the Striped Bass population in Narragansett Bay swells to great numbers. These fish are following the huge schools of menhaden, herring, squid and other types of forage that settle in through out the bay to feed and spawn. As water temperatures rise come mid June we relocate to the "motherland of striper fishing", Block Island. For those that are not familiar with fishing Block Island you are in for a real treat. Some of the most beautiful and uncrowded waters in southern New England surround the island. The island is known for it's BIG striped bass. The state record striper of 71 pounds caught on the south side of Block Island in 1980 was crushed with a 75 pound fish in August of 08'. Over half of all our Striped Bass are caught on surface flies and plugs. There is nothing like being witness to a 30 or 40 pound fish blasting an artificial right in front of you! There are always marauding monster bluefish to be had around Block island. Bluefish will destroy topwater plugs with reckless abandon as well as jump and pull like the insane fish that they are. The stripers get all the attention but Bluefish are a much better game fish and pound for pound one of the best in the world. Block Island is one of the premier points of departure for hunting bluefin tuna and sharks. 5 to 15 miles off BI is all you have to travel to the tuna/shark fishing grounds. Bonito and false albacore will generally show up in mid August and provide some of best light tackle fishing an angler can have. I will also make runs in the fall to fish Montauk, the "Race" at fishers Island, Watch Hill, and Point Judith, Rhode Island. Please contact me with any questions about customizing a trip.

Snowfly Fishing Reports

August 23, 2010

Block Island has shown us her ugly side over the past 4 days with sustained winds of over 35 knots out of the N and NE. It has been impossible to get out. Moving charters and losing charters has been nonexistent this season so I guess I shouldn't complain. In all honesty I don't mind stiff breeze. The fishing has been as slow as it's been all season and a good shakeup is what BI needed. I'm out twice on both Thursday and Friday so if anyone's interested in coming out then contact me so I can give you the latest early fall fishing update. Other areas like Montauk and Pt. Judith have show good signs of a solid run of fish so it shouldn't be long before we start seeing the classic fall blitzes that make Southern New England such a special place to be in September and October.

Until next time, Screaming reels & ripping tides Capt Greg Snow
