Got up about 5:30. too tired to run out the door.
hung out here - online - for a while then woke up my youngest, Justin, to get goin. he needed the sleep too.
we went down and looked at scituate harbor - it was like glass. went out to the lighthouse - breakers were a bustin.
was bout 7:AM. - we decided to go in at Herring Brook and mess around in North River. I let him drive the boat. He did well.
I like having a small person steer leaves me chance to fish!!
However....
on the main river there were about a dozen boats all fishing no catching.
I put out chunks of herring and began tossing lures.
I put a teaser on and a new wildeye I picked up last weekend.
rattling, with trebble under it and standard single on top.
Got a hit but he didn't stick around. I watched as he followed the lure right up to the boat about three seperate times then nothing more.
We motored up the river, I stuck redtubes on and trawled while Justin motored around. Still nothing. I pulled in the tubes and made some casts with that new blueand white GagSlammer I bought at last MSBA - kept the teaser on. Still nothing.
We left the water at about 11 It was a good time even through no fish on. I hear a rumor the fish are off Minot. Maybe later I will drive out there to see if I can reach em from shore.
