I'm heading to the Vineyard for a long weekend and plan to make this the final surf trip of the season. I have never fished on Martha's Vineyard before and would appreciate any information or recommendations on spots, times, tides...We will have the use of 4wd vehicle. Thanks for any help. Larry

I have never fished there but I have heard wasque pt is the one
of the best surf spots on the east coast. Check with a local
tackle shop when you get there. I have heard there are surf guides
you can hire that will take you to the hot spots.
Good luck.

I have fished Marthas Vineyard for about 10 years now. My father has
been for about 20yrs, he lives there. As Bruce suggested Wasque
point is excellent fishing . Although you said you have access to
a 4wd vehicle ,you cant go out there with out the proper permits
which cost you about $50.00. But if you dont mind doing a little
walking you can take the Chappiquidick ferry and drive on roads
to the parking area from there its about a twenty minute walk to
Wasque. Unless you dont mind paying for the permits ? Then you
could drive right out there . I suggest calling Larry's tackle shop
in Edgartown they can tell you where the fish are. The west going
tide is best out at Wasque . East beach has also been good.
Some other places to try would be Menemsha and lobsterville ,
the big and little bridges on state beach road (try rebels at
day break for stripers here!)
If I can answer any other questions Just drop me a mail.
P.S. The people down there pronouce WASQUE -Way swee .
Dont ask me how you get that from that but they will
correct you if you call it Was kee like I do
