A few shots of the local residents of Chappy. I almost hit this gal and her daughter when they jumped out of the brush on the inside trail heading to the jetty. Caught a little over sixty albies the first week there. Things got lean after that. A couple of hundred 2 # bloofish, some of which help delete the metal lure dpeartment, were caught as well. Also knocked down some bass. Ran into a blitz of what I thought was bloofish one day under the chimneys and it turned out that some 10 # bass were slashing and eating six inch bloofish. Caught a few bass that hit on Kastmasters during the blizt. Have some other pics, not of fish that I will upload.

I watched two younger guys from New Jersey hog the jetty one entire day catching albies, sometmes every cast for 7 or 8 casts in a row. They figured when I asked them that they hooked and landed about fifty a piece that day. I caught a total of twenty beside them at various times during the morning and afternoon.

Did I hear right.....a 32# bass won the shore division? Tough fishing.

That's correct. There was a time when a 32 wouldn't even guarantee you a daily. :(

We only went for a week so I passed on fishing Wasque...I concentrated my efforts on going for the big Bass up island...BIG MISTAKE

Wasque was where the Albies were and the rest was an empty shoreline. I walked North and South and many many hours throwing plugs and eels for nuttin'. RPHud spent many hours at Lobsterville that week and nada for him as well.

Wasque is definitely the place to be. We may just have to move the Basic Fishing Shack across the ferry for next year.

Biggest bass in the Nantucket Inshore Classic was 24.5 lbs from shore. Any proficient canal angler could win both tourneys with a quick 4 hour trip to the ditch this past week!
