Local fishing guide

Common here: striped bass · bluefish · mackerel · Access: surf / harbor / jetty

Hampton is New Hampshire’s short but serious saltwater strip: a sandy surf beach in front and Hampton Harbor’s channel behind, both fed by an 8-9 foot tide swing.

What runs when

  • Striped bass: June through September; schoolies in the surf at dawn, keepers in the harbor channel on the tide change.
  • Bluefish: mid-summer into fall, slashing bait in the wash when they show.
  • Atlantic mackerel: May-June inshore runs, jigged from the harbor wall.

Where to cast

The surf along North Beach at first light on a rising tide; the harbor channel from the Route 1A bridge area on the outgoing. The jetty at the harbor mouth is the perennial striper ambush.

Tide timing here

Hampton’s channel funnels a big tide into serious current — the bite is the first two hours of the ebb in the harbor and the rise in the surf. This page’s daily windows put both on one screen; the fishing window tracks the surf side.

Rules to know

New Hampshire saltwater license required; striped bass are slot-limited with circle hooks on bait. Current rules at NH Fish & Game.
