Best Deep Sea Fishing Fishing Spots in Narragansett
From legendary bays to productive reefs, here are the top deep sea fishing fishing spots your captain will target in the Narragansett area.
Coxes Ledge (Narragansett Access)
Coxes Ledge is the premier offshore fishing ground accessible from Narragansett's Galilee port, lying approximately 40 miles south where a productive underwater ridge concentrates cod, pollock, bluefin tuna, and yellowfin tuna. The ledge's hard bottom creates upwelling that supports enormous baitfish populations, attracting pelagic and bottom species in fishable concentrations. Charter boats from Galilee run to Coxes Ledge for some of the best offshore fishing in southern New England.
The Fingers (Block Island South)
The Fingers are a series of underwater ridges extending south into the Atlantic from the Block Island area, creating natural fish-concentrating structure in 100 to 300 feet of water. Bluefin tuna, bigeye tuna, mahi-mahi, and sharks cruise these ridges during summer and fall following warm-water bait concentrations. Narragansett charter boats target The Fingers for big-game species on full-day offshore trips out of Galilee.
The Mud Hole (RI Offshore)
The Mud Hole is a depression in the seafloor south of Rhode Island where nutrient-rich sediment and upwelling concentrate baitfish and attract a variety of predatory species. Bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, and blue sharks are the primary targets for boats working the area during warm-water months. The Mud Hole's position between the nearshore grounds and the deeper offshore canyons makes it a productive waypoint on extended offshore trips.
Block Island Canyon
Block Island Canyon is a submarine canyon cutting into the continental shelf south of Block Island where depths plunge from 200 feet to over 1,000 feet. The canyon walls create upwelling that concentrates baitfish and attracts bluefin tuna, bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna, and swordfish during summer and fall. Long-range offshore charters from Narragansett target the canyon for New England's best deep-water big-game fishing.
