Cod Fishing in Rhode Island
Rhode Island is one of the top destinations for Cod fishing. Classic cold-water groundfish of the Gulf of Maine, Stellwagen Bank and Alaska, jigged over deep structure, making Rhode Island's waters an ideal habitat during peak season.
Best Time to Go: Cod fishing in Rhode Island typically peaks May to October. Gulf of Maine cod is tightly limited. Many trips target haddock and pollock instead. See the Rhode Island fishing calendar.
What to Expect: Most Rhode Island charter trips targeting Cod run 4–8 hours and include all tackle, bait, and fishing licenses. Bring sunscreen, snacks, and a cooler for your catch. Captains on Unreel are not charged commissions, so 100% of your payment goes to the captain.
