Sometime in April - ..........from the piers...you gotta be there when they're there. If ya lucky you can chum them to hang around a little while, but they're constantly on the move. If from a boat, just follow the 6 green/horns driving the 16 footer around the bay - they always find them.

As far as tackle, Mike from Cape Cod Tackle in Wareham who just happens to be a sponsor for this site, can provide you with the proper line-test Sabiki rigs which you can weight down with either some point jude tins or plain ol' lead so you get hung up less...or tie your own like I used to do -


Good Luck - Use your fishfinder and jig deeeeeeeep :D
