Took 2 strangers fishing in the last week: Notaro and Eelskimmer. Headed to Quick's Hole area with Notaro and the tuna grounds off P'town with Eelskimmer.

Both survived (barely) and each enjoyed the trip. We boated several black sea bass, schoolie blues, and numerous scup with Notaro (when we wasn't asleep). Too bad we couldn't get John the targeted tuna but he did manage to land the biggest of the 2 keeper stripers we boated.

:nopics:

We're actually looking to downsize, too. The 23 is a great boat but for the amount of time it gets used, it's not worth having it. We'd like a 17 to 19 foot cc that's easy for 1 person to trailer but can fish 2 to 3 people comfortably.

Tough to edit without SPOT BURN but there is still enough horizon the astute viewer will be able to I.D.

Tuna fishing with PRBUZZ....
 

...and faithful companion O.D. Mike (Tonto)
is an experience not to be forgotten. They
fish very well together and while we did not
catch any BFT we did see some chasing
bait last Thursday. I was a guest and treated
royally by both. I will add that they have
only one weakness--food. Their grub bucket
consisted of bottled water and energy bars.
Needless to say the Ham and Cheese sandwiches
I brought may have contributed to the treatment
I received. Many thanks guys. Great day and
great company.

Taking this opportunity to re-introduce myself back to the Boston area. Finally moving back after 3years in CT enjoying the Sound ;) Meet and fished with many great people in CT, some met online and others as a member of CT Surfcasting Association. Would like to do the same here.

define Boston AREA....might help

Live in Brookline, but gave up fishing the "Local AREA" long ago, so I'm usually traveling (both North and South Shores). In laws live in Falmouth so most w/e I'm there.

You can always come and check out The Plum Island Surfcasters.....great place to meet fellow anglers. :hee:

My plan was to make the next meeting in 2 weeks. Will I get shunned if I wear my CSA hat? ;)

Nope...but be aware the meeting is at the Airport and then we are going to fish for a few...we don't start back up w/ the speakers until next month.

fishing with PRBuzz
 

So,
I guess that Buzz and I are not strangers anymore... We went out fishing and found fluke, scup and black sea bass. The fish were cooperating so we didn't have to use our back up plans. Speaking from my experience fishing with Buzz these are tips that may help your day if you except his fishing offer.

If you want to bring food for everyone - Frito's – ham sandwiches – bottled water – dark micro brews – nothing spicy -

Gaffing and netting skills are a plus. My gaffing skills need work.

Knowing how to fillet fish, but not necessary.

If you get sea sick let him know up front, I was feeling pretty awful in 4-6' swells while rigging macs in the back of the boat.

Be ready to fish hard...

Team work is a must!

Prepare to catch fish and have FUN!!!

Hope this helps,
Mike
