Cod Trip
 

OK - looking for a list of people and then we'll make some calls...

Looking at Plymouth or Gloucster and around 50 bucks. Date will be either a Saturday OR Maybe the Day after Thanksgiving (I'd need permission from my wife :p and some of you may need from your other half)... These boats usually leave around 6 am and return around 3pm... My limited COD experience says we are better from Plymouth north instead od running out of Rhody... Who is interested? and who has a prefference for a particular boat/skipper....

the list begins...
 

...bloocrab will attend either date, a Saturday or Thanksgiving aftermath... Bellllch!!! ooooops :o

..I have no preference to the location.

..sea you soon!!...

I'm in. Dependent on the wife of course.
I've never been, so I don't have a preference.

at this time i'm interested. never been cod fishing on a party boat, but sounds like a good time about to happen:)


canalratt-> found this one

Smokey and I have plans for the friday after Thanksgiving. A weekend would be better.

Friday definitely out. Need to check on the weekend........

The Saturday after T-Day is out for me as that's Liam's first B-Day... Ain't missin' that.... How about Saturday November 17th ???

Count me out guys & Gals, we'll be in PA looking for Bambi!!!!

JohnR, find me an Icon please and help me install, It's not working for this computor illiterate either!!!

Do you thing maybe you could come over some night and look at my scanner before I smash it!!!?

John either days will do for me. Best bet I've seen is one of the Yankee boats out of Glouster, its 42$ and a good boat with a galley and they put you on fish. They have mutiple boats so you have to decide what boat everyone goes on. I like the older boat better but not sure what is running. You can hold a spot by credit card and pay by cash or card when you get there. There is a decent resturant at the dock and free parking. Rcrabber that Icon is the ONE! John little help here, you know where i went to school.

All set - thanks RedCrbbr....

Yeh - I've been out on the Yankee boats before several years back - had a ball, caught lotsa' fish... Sounds good to me.

Sorry you can't make it fw...

Now - a list of roughly who can go (I'm only adding those on this thread):

Bloo
Slip
BM
Saltheart
Smokey
The Monster
Crbbr
oh yeh, me
Fishpart
C-Ratt

some tips ?? from a novice..
 

..I know nothing....and I know you all probably know this ..but,


for the 'baiters'...
..if ya got 10 - 12oz. sinkers .........bring em'
..bring some Cod hooks too...sizes vary... 5/0 - 6/0 ??
..some guys even bring their own clams.. ??..crabs
..the mates on board don't tolerate knots or tangles much..they juss' cut em'...so if ya don't wanna pay the skipper double for gear bring yer own...( but they do have some for sale on board )..

...I use 14 - 17 oz. jigs..with a teaser set-up...but will have some tackle in case the bite is bigger on Bait..by the way, I'm not sure they sell jigs on board..

..umm overdress/for warmth! ( you can always take it off, but if you don't have it..you can't put it on ;) ..)... you may also want to bring some gloves and sunglasses :cool:

...they will probably have a kitchen for H-dogs/and other greasy products...:D I'll bring my cooler full and hopefully after eating I'll bring her home full too..:D .. full of Cod of course...

..on a sad note: ..Dramamine, Dramamine, Dramamine...I've seen way too many trips with half the passengers all layed out inside the boat...smellin the fumes of others:eek: ...not that I've never been one of em' ..but prepare yourself!

..I'll edit this, if I feel there's more to add...or anyone else can, if they'd like...

cod trip
 

hey john im in if your intrested in going out of plymouth we can go on the andylynn. ive been out on there boat many times . they dont over crowd the boat . and they only fish one side of the boat to cut down line tangles. hes also a member of mass bass. so we can maybe get a discount. let me know if you want me to talk to andy or not

uh....I would be interested but I am not sure if I should....

I have never been.....is it OK for a "beginner" or would you recommend I sit this one out??? Honesty is OK....

Another thing is the gear.....rodreel jigs etc.... can all this be rented?????? I am not going to blow all kindsa cash on something I may only do once??!!!!

I just found this......


I WANT TO GO!

Mikey - talk to your friend on the andylynn please... Find out how much and if there is a people limit because it looks like we may have 15-20 people... Plymouth is cool too...

OK Tattoo

Jenn - you can rent gear no problem, sometimes I'd rather rent than bring my own as I'd rather tangle up theirs than mine... Cod fishing is a lot of fun and you and the hubby should go. Experience is not as important as you think with it too....

If you haven't been out on a cod boat before, do the dramamine as a precaution - wicked pissa important... (Also, don't eat three D&D bacon, egg & cheeses if you are not familiar with it )http://128.241.205.103/vbulletin/ima...ilies/puke.gif http://128.241.205.103/vbulletin/ima...lies/puke2.gif

cool! not sure on the hubby yet....do we have a definate date yet??? (as hunting season for him may interfere...):rolleyes:


The better half.......c'mon!!!!! I need some female support!!!;) ;) ;)

Sorry, in light of everything going on I can't make it.

Let's See:

Fishing on a boat out of the North Shore in mid-November.....Bloocrab painted such a pretty picture!


I'll have to think about that one - sounds really tempting - pass the Dramamine!

How's this for an answer - 'We'll see.'


:D :D :D :D :D

...sorry if I scared anyone...
 

...Better Half, I didn't mean to make it ugly...I just don't like surprises ...thats why I shared the info, so those who may have not gone...aren't surprised!!...;) ..[ just some precautions ]

..but I truly believe the more the merrier on a Cod boat...it'll be a lot of fun!...:D :D :cool:

John the AndyLynn is a great boat too if you do his offshore trip. We may be able to charter the whole boat. I don't care for the inshore trip, he just heads towards Scituite and only goes a few miles out. I've fished next to him lots of times and he just anchors and does not do very good. His offshore trips are drifts and productive.

cod trip
 

jenn. if you dont try it youll never know if you like it . yes you should go. and you can rent all the gear you need its only like five or ten bucks to rent . its alot of fun

well I guess as long as the date is OK I AM THERE!!!!;)

I'm definately interested, once we establish when, where, cost etc.

I'd be interested if a day is decided. The day after thanksgiving is out for me. Plus I would rather go when it is cold. True winter trip. AndyLynn would be great if you can get it. Please post a date, and if it is good I'd be in for 2 people.


Bill

Sounds like a great winter trip....myself and Squid kid are interested...Please let us know

Watz this? A fishing trip? Wholly macoroni, it's only a short drive south.......

yup count me in, unless something comes up w/ the family,it shouldn't be a problem:D :D

Got the wife to go...add another to the list.
