Calculated for this location. Moon times are accurate to within a few minutes. Major periods are the 2 hours around the moon passing overhead or underfoot; minor periods are the hour around moonrise and moonset.
Fishing Quonset Point
Newport and Quonset Point: a big bay with rocky shoreline, bridges and harbors.
What's biting now (Fall): Striped bass blitzes along the beaches and breachways; tautog season on the rocks.
Commonly caught in this area: Striped bass, scup, tautog, bluefish and squid in spring.
Also caught here: scup, tautog, winter flounder.
Shallow flats fish best on a rising tide that pushes fish up to feed. Move slowly, wear polarized glasses and look for tailing fish or nervous water. Cast ahead of fish, not on top of them.
The rating is our estimate, not a guarantee. It combines tide range, wind, rain and storms, temperature swings, the moon phase and how well the solunar periods line up with dawn and dusk. Fish do not read forecasts - local knowledge always wins. Read more
