You know John, I thought about it. That year there was a ton of fish in and out of the harbor. I saw huge schools of fish off of Wollaston on my way home from work almost every day for a month.

I remember FW and BC reporting huge days out there... it was one of the reasons I bought my first boat... I wanted a way to get out to those fish.

I also remember alot of bait down there and I remember a report of bunker getting chased onto the beach down there at our spot.

I fished that spot alot in '01 and there was NO bait down there and I only picked up individual fish.

The past two seasons I haven't put much time in, but when I've been there, there's been no bait. And this year seems pretty slow all the way around in the boston area. And I haven't seen those masses of fish the way I did that year in other areas.

I'm sure fish will push through there and on a given night you might hit it good, but until I see other signs of a stronger run of bait and fish, I'll probably stick with the boat.
