getting any?????
 

Sandwich, canal, Hull, Scituate.....about 12 hours of fishing...1 dink to show for it....:tm:
I thinks it's all over...most likely for me anyway.....
Any notable recent catches? Please share...Im losing hope....it feels dead...and cold!

Not getting anything to speak of Matt. Its been slow for me.

In my spare time I'm posting responses to various threads declaring the fishing is over for large numbers of large fish...:laugha:

Give it a couple more outings, don't throw it in just yet...guys(not me) are still getting some decent single fish here and there.I'll be coming out of retirement a couple more times this year...:angel:

Thats all a scam; your trying to discourage anyone to free up rocks! :fishslap:

Actually I might come down your way next week. I haven't fished gansett since last year. Kinda miss it. Got a bunch of fish late season there in the past. Think it was the night after Halloween a couple years ago. You know where on the dropping tide.:cool:

Call me if you want company

It was a dinkfest for me the other night in that 7 mile river to our south in the heavy wind. The small fish had invaded a hole I fish and were voracious. Just no size to the fish at all. Saw a guy cruise past under the light with a decent bass on his cruiser.

But, I think Backbeach is right. The majority of the bass have slid through already. You may find an isolated pocket of good fish that got delayed or hung up feeding on a good bait source on the way south, but you have to be there at the right place at the right time to intercept them.

I still have a couple trips in me before I hang it up. Probably one more ditch trip and a deep SoCo trip on the new moon.:walk:

^ Will do. Thinking of mid week. Just need a NW wind and I'll be there.

A few years ago, the canal dried up about this time of year. After a week long lull, the place filled up with mackerel and fish for about one week. I think the last day I caught a fish was November 7, but it was slamzany on top for that whole week starting on Halloween.It was 20 smalls for every 20# fish though. Still a good way to end the year.

Mike, you need to turn your avatar into the grim reaper. you are on every site declaring its over!
Good reports, bad reports, whatever, I will keep fishing. I never catch squat when everyone is hammering them, why should I stop when no one is catching!

Good point of view :rotf3:

Besides;
you've seen it turn on in mid-November :cheers2:

hey! I just noticed your signature!

I'm also wrong most of the time. :conf:

Case in point:
For every good outing I have there's countless skunks to balance things off. My predictive powers are minimal at best.:behead:

Remember, I'm not saying its over. I'm saying the best is likely behind us for numbers of bigguns.

:tm::tm::tm::tm:

Most of the large may be gone, but the very largest come through last.

SoCo was Hot today.

Nothing like building a house 500yrds from constant blitzing fish!

Got blanked the past few night/mornings. Although I lost a very large fish this morning in the rocks in the manomet/ellisville area around 6am.

I am not ready to call it yet, but close.

I am gonna fish the slop tomorrow! I love fishing fall slop!:kewl:

In the Greek's book he calls them "late cruisers".

I remember just a few years ago there was a 60# fish taken in the canal right around halloween.

Stetzkos 73# fish was November 3, I believe.

An old timer once told me this time of the year if you are willing to stand out on any of those rock jetties that dot the south cape from Chatham to Falmouth and freeze your you know what off you will be rewarded with a large fish but most get too cold and go too long without a bite to succeed in this endeavor.

Wife is out of state on business so I have the children and no time to fish.......................................

So NO on both accounts

That's funny.:laugha:

Both of my kids were conceived late oct/early november.....could be coincidence, but that's right around the time I stop fishing :hee:

Fish Are All Gone...
 

but if there were some fattys around this is what they would be stuffing themselves with.

I'll be getting out a few more times too Mike...I will most likely travel though...I think the best has past locally
Thanks George....that definatly helps the morale! :humpty:

Nice stomach contents BBC

There was some diving birds I saw today off the coast of RI.Wind wasn't working to my advantage it was too far from shore to cast.I was going to swim out but I didn't feel like getting wrinkly skin on my hands.I hate that.

There's always Jupiter Matt! I'm deer hunting in South Texas and Missouri through the 20th of November and then it's game on.

Start looking at flights......

:kewl:...can't break tradition.....

Canal was beautiful last night. No rain and the light show was amazing in the eastern sky. A buddy and I only saw two other red lights along the shore in our 5 hr adventure.

Fishing was decent too. You gotta get out and try and you should still be rewarded around these parts for another week.

Yea mike I was at work and took a look outside and and thought it must be nice tonite, fishing. Last nite was a whole nother deal, miserable.
