joe, nothing going on in here in this forum what's up? how the fishing ?

it's pretty sad around here after the herring run the stripers
have disappeared just a few schoolies here and there. where
are all the big fish. i read a report in the boston herald that it's
like this from buzzards bay to plum island


bob:smash:

There are fish around.....Just the old lower bay summer pattern time....
This forum kind of died...maybe it will pick up..

I dropped a 38-42inch fish at my feet friday morning, going back tonight to get her back.:smash:

Yep lower bay :D

blackeye and I had a very fruitful night last night :happy:

only one fish under 28" and most were whoppas-

tattoo bob, when the herring run ends, your fishing pattern should change too.. most bass will leave the mouths of herring runs for deeper, cooler water in the summer months. At night is when they will venture in close to shore to forrage for scup, blackfish and crabs and the ocasional herring pod thats headed out to sea.
Look on a chart for deep ledges that are within casting range that also have fast moving water, and that are close to white water. If you find out where these places are, you'll have bass in your freezer.

Hey Joe,

I was wondering if you are still doing charter trips. If you are, I am interested in setting one up with you. PM sent.

Thanks

fish were around this past weekend, even if i couldn't hook any. :smash: they were in very isolated spots. casting 10' left or right of the school would get you nothing. i was always 10' to the left. :af:

well that settles it i'm coming to rhode island

with fly rod in hand, plug bag and my 10 foot rod

bob:cool:

42" 27lber last night

Chef's getting big ones...
Tattoo Bob is coming...
Must be late June..

Carl....I'm still doing charter trips just not as many....I'm pretty busy with the retail and magazine work...But I'll take you out..:D
