    The Merrimack River at Newburyport is one of New England's premier striped bass fishing rivers. (Alternate/duplicate of Spot 33323 Newburyport.) Spot Features: The Merrimack River in Essex County, Massachusetts, at its mouth near Newburyport, is one of the most productive striped bass rivers in New England, with the river's tidal estuary providing excellent striper habitat and the nearby Plum Island providing additional surf fishing access. (Alternate/duplicate of 33323 Newburyport.) Seasonality: Striped bass are the primary target in the Merrimack River in Essex County, Massachusetts (duplicate/alternate - see also 33323 Newburyport), from May through October, with the best action in spring and fall when bass migrate. Bluefish are abundant through summer and fall. Atlantic mackerel are spring schooling fish. Winter flounder are spring bottom species.
