Greetings from Capt. Dave & BAYMEN!

A balmy 10 degrees this morning in Baymen Land at first light, but temps warming up to the high 20’s! Typical January weather on the MA coast and we love and enjoy every minute of it. Good ice fishing again soon…!

I am very happy to report that all our chartering scheduling is now current and up date. I personally reached out to all our clients to confirm striped bass charter bookings for 2026, 2027, and 2028 seasons. Thanks to everyone for being so accommodating. I have the best clients a guide could ever ask for! If anyone has a booking or a reschedule and I have not contacted you, please shoot me an e-mail ASAP with dates and deposits paid and we will get you scheduled. But I do believe I have contacted everyone. 

OPEN DATES AVAILABLE 2026 & 2027 (!) – I  have a list of open dates for 2026 (only a few left) and 2027 (A bunch still available).  If you want to fish with me this season or next, email me.

FLY FISHERMEN: If you are looking for some top notch fly patterns, especially big hollow ties, check out John Payne’s instagram page @yeschefmoreplease for patterns he has for sale. I have many of John’s flies and they are fantastic ties that catch big fish! Here are a few I own below. Tell him Capt. Dave from BAYMEN sent you.

That’s the short BAYMEN Report news for today. Wishing everyone a fantastic January. Only ten days left and we will be into February! Let’s see, that means the first schoolies will be showing in our bay in about 84 DAYS…!!!!

Tight Lines.
