4'-5' no need to jig

yeah that forcast is ugly. you guys who know the area - will that area, NB to mishaum to west island, be safe enough to fish with all that wind?

Work on Sunday and take Monday off and fish then....

(just a thought)
Mon
NW winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 1 foot or less.

I am once again out. Not because of weather, but other commitments.

Just ordered a bushel of crab...that fish Jason got was weighed in at 14.75#!!!!!!!

West 10 to 15 with gusts to 20 is ok as long as we stay behind round hill point the point runs north to south and wind will be coming off the beach. You won't want to fish west island in that wind specially the out going tide. I fished in front of padanaram Sunday in NW 10 to 15 gust to 20 and seas were 2 to 3 ft. It's your call guys whatever your comfortable with. I know I will be fishing that area on sunday regardless if we do togfest or not.

Earlier this year my wife and I where anchored up on Negro ledge (about 3 miles east of Round Hill Pt.) in solid 2s-3s. Although she did fine my guts couldn't take it. We're in a 1851CC. Buzzards bay gets nasty anything S-SW-W expect to take a pounding especially out of the SW when its blowing straight down the pipe. In smaller boats I think you need to cut that distance in half to fish comfortably.

The BeeReel is OUT for Sunday, I am going Tuesday with 1ft'ers 10sec intervals. Anyone want to come? Here's the latest

That forecast sucks.... solid 4' to 5.

Working all day tmw on a building we had to stabilize with temporary walls inside, as the sills and first floor framing were totally rotted. Went through 200 2x4s....brutal. Job just became a structural nightmare. If how I physically feel after today is any sign of how tomorrow is going to go, I am probably not going to be up for those seas.

dropping like flies

I wonder if a launch from here and keeping to the west is doable 20' er

1480 E Rodney French Blvd, New Bedford, MA 02744
Schamochi Dock

Or is the ramp on Middle St. Up near rt 6,, across from the VFW Fort Phoenix Post 2892 just as protected?

Never ever been up that way, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night! Thank god for google earth LOL

I lost my crew but still thinking about it solo,,, if nothing else recon the ramps for Monday and or Tuesday .

No game tonight, Gup

Middle St ramp very protected and easy for solo launch, I have done it many times. No worry about tide stage.

I don't know when they pull the dock at Rodney French. I remember getting very wet one time

Thanks guys, Gup

They never pull the Middle St docks.

Showing 15-20 now, my boats out.

Sounds like a bust. Maybe move the date?

Padnarum is a better place to launch

we've been wishing the forcast doable and it's just not happening so lets do the right thing and postpone this till next weekend - nov 3rd. the forcast is being displayed in red which is never a good thing. if you have to ask yourself if its a good idea to go, than it probably isn't. the fish will be here for many weeks so let's try again with a little more civil weather hopefully. nov 3rd work?

Nov 3 Bradley and I can fish
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

That is a good call IMO...As is stands now...I could make it tomorrow but I would not look forward to crossing the mouth of BB in that slop. They are calling for gale warning sat night in RI sound.

The 3rd looks do-able for me as of right now.

Nov 3 Sounds like a good idea niko. I'm most likely gona fish Sunday because I can't help myself and I'm very comfortable navigating in 20 to 25Kt winds on the bay. I spend a lot of time out there and know exactly where,what tides and relative areas to stay away from. I will post Sunday night and let you guys know how I made out.

I'm good to go and you can come with me.

Don't think any of the boats have heaters except made Mr. Sandman's.:rotf2:

Good call Niko,,, middle of week for me,,, family thingy on the 3rd 😁

Well I was going to be on Guppys boat but I called out cause of the weather, In my condition I need to sit all the time and not sure how
i would do in that slop?
I did not want to go and ruin the day for anyone!!
I did want to meet up with you guys after to here the stories!!
11/3 is fine with me if gup is going and the weather holds out??

I see gup is out for the 3rd! So I will go to the party after if that holds up??

I don't think it is a bad idea to pull the plug here. I can do next week but I will be heading out tuesday if anybody wants to join. Fishing is good!
