I am trying hard to wrap up a rewiring project that should have been done in February!!! Or I would have gone for a ride.... Anyone fish the Bank for cod?

caught some schoolies today. might go for tautog tomorrow. never been , they say its not bad .

I just got back in from Duxbury Bay. The wind kicked up almost as soon as I was full steam and it turned into a jacuzzi. My little flat bottom just dosn't like the light sloppy stuff. Went way in shore on the high tide and just caught glimpses of schools on the hummingbird. Nothing caught though.

Anyone fish the Bank for cod?



Maybe
:hidin:

Went to the bank today and the fish were VERY cooperative. They loved the "bugs" early then the jigs. They were chasing the sand eels. There weren't any super sized schools but properly executed drifts were the ticket. 4:1 shorts to keepers was the call of the day. Came home with MUCHO FILETS. :claps: :claps: :bl: All in all an awesome day weather and quantity wise.

Hey guys,

I finally have something to contribute. Splashed the boat Sat for the first time. Ran to the H buoy and nothing was doing. Decided to run to the bank. The boat was running awesome! Fished east of the bank and boat several keeper cod and haddock all on clams. Fished in about 210 ft and surface temp 42- 44 degrees. Whales, porpoises, and seals all over. This was my first time ever cod or haddock fishing in New England. It is a far run for bottom fishing IMO. Anyway, loved it so much went Sunday as well. I didn't get out till mid afternoon. The fish cooperated but not as heavy as Sat.
I have never filleted a cod till Sat and noticed they have alot of worms in them. Anyone else ever experience this???

I hit the bank as well in my new ride with my son. We caught alot of cod, no haddock. We had about the same ratio as keeper. Great day for sure!

Hard to catch a cod that DOESN'T have worms.

Maybe

I take out now because of my charter ins lay up period!

Goin out of Wareham Sat. Anybody seen any seabass?

Going back to the Bank tomorrow. Might be a little nasty weather wise. Will report tomorrow night.

They just cancelled the trip.

bummer... what are they calling for?

I dont know. I got the email saying that the trip was cancelled. Depending on the weather i might take a ride East and poke around out there.

I thought it was supposed to be 1 - 2 today? This morning it was 1.9 every 11 secs at Stellwagon.

:realmad: I hear ya. We were going on Walshs boat the AC with a bunch of guys and they cancelled it. I don't know why. I'm not happy. This is the second time the trip was cancelled. Took the day off and everything.

i went out yesterday. we limited out in a half day - fish to 12 lbs. lots of life out there. whales were putting on the feedbag. i saw a trail of bubbles next to the boat and thought to myself "this can't be good".

i went out of PI on a headboat yesterday. it sucked. like a dozen keepers on the whole boat. lots of herring out there...

Anyone headed out this weekend? I'm hitting the bank tomorrow with my son, a buddy and his son.

going to try to get out there later in the week

niko, theres some nice cod there. good work

I'll be out on the Ave Maria 2 tomorrow :hidin:
