I said Boston Haba before I read your post.

Dude you burned all our favorite spots :smash:

:D
awesome pic

Link,

Grew up in Quincy and used to keep my boat at Savin Hill Yacht Club just outside the picture until I moved to Marshfield. Yes that is an old picture. The Squantum AFB is not visible. I believe it maybe was actually a Navy training air base. Don't even think it was still operational in the 60's. I'm 37 and never remember any planes flying, just the old hangers that they used to keep boats in before the big Marina Bay condo boom.

Love starring at those aerial photos to see all the sandy spots on a sunny day.

:mad: Ya great, now everyone knows...I work across from the Boston Habah hotel (foreground), and can draw a line across the watah to my house on the Fore Rivah...I need a private commutah boat :smash:

Nice pic..

First on the water magaize dose a article on the islands, and now this...i'm going to pick up golf!

Wow, I can see all my spots :laughs:

I can see basic patricks fishing holes very clearly. Just make out the windmill in Hull. The bridge!

Watch out for the dune monsters!

damn mickey, i remember the day i broke up with my ex, Hue Linh. I took her friend, Duyen (Lily is her cizitenship name) a scroll around the CI and helped out four kids on rigging their baits in front of her. She was impressed on my fishing skills and loathed my squid scent. :D This just has brought me back a lot of memories... sobs, sobs.

PS, I missed a blitz inside of the bowl two years ago during the fall run. It was behind me. Ask Bassman18. He saw it.:smash: :smash: :wall: :wall:

Look again Patrick, the cape is there, up higher toward the horizon. We already know there's no fish in Hull :smash:

Very cool pic

I see the limp wrist of P-town, at the top of the pic.

No fish in that pic at all.


Learn does not = burn... well, I can only hope, I guess.
Learn useta mean scouting miles of shore, easing your way into a few places and lots and lots of figuring things out on your own, that in itself was most of the fun.......
seems to me, everybody kinda wants to be a Mc'Fisherman these days. gimme the gear, gimme the whens wheres and how to do it.


"Learn not to burn"

what do I know, I'm just a grumpy ol phart. :huh:

:hihi:

You can see the Beantown skyline from the top of the Pilgrim Monument in P-Town. In the old days we would climb the stairs to the top in summer and toss pebbles from it toward commercial street. If the wind was right we probably bonked a few heads!

Well I consider myself "burnt".
But if I may "I'd like to claim my seat" as they say in AA.
I've been fishing Boston Harbor as far back as I can remember. I was born in 1958 and my father (glazier\glassworker) always had a boat - even during hard times. He was a member of the Bunker Hill Yaught Club until it was burnt down by Townies after they shot our boats full of holes. He spent the last of his days @ the Winter Hill Yaught Club & had a boat till the day he died.
I've worked on lobster boats (puken into chum in the sun) & have had seen strings lost from bouys cut by others.
I've worked party boats clearing snags & baiting for others.
I've pushed many hooks trough so I could cut the barb.
I've been roughed up on Castle Island & the 107 causeway in Lynn because I was standing in a locals spot.

And when I finally came to this site I tought "wow here I can learn & maybe help others"

I can tell you that there are some great spots off of Nahant and not worry about "Burning" it because it is all about knowledge & experiance. (plus no on street parking)
If I ever meet you fishing and you ask advise I will tell you the truth. It doesn't mean you will catch any more fish & it will not make you a fisherman. But maybe it will keep you from drowning.

So If you look at an arial view does that "burn" anything or expand horizons ?
I'm sure you will always find some local that will say it is his sand & bust you in the chops. But I don't expect it here.

There is some humar in the thread "spot burning" that beacuse your new, there is no way for to know about. Its an old joke that really was never to funny, but neverless rears its ugly head up now and then. Think of this post as a Saturday night live skit, not to be taken to seriously, but based on some truth. You seem like a nice guy, plenty of salt in your blood. Take your time and get to know some of the people here. There is many lifetimes of knoledge at this site. I'm sure you can learn here, as much as you can pass on.:)

take a chill pill....

My apologies

:( :confused: :smash: did I do that LINK SR:cool:
