April - late start getting boat ready due to family vacation but did hit the freshwater scene hard due to prompting by my youngest son. We fished a lot in April & May targeting bass, pickerel & even our first trout.
May - 60% freshwater fishing which was productive majority of the time. Really gives perspective to how much prep work is needed when you own a boat and fish saltwater.
Canal sucked for me the whole month.
Sea Bass fishing in Buzzards Bay was lights out! Personal bests for both my sons on 6+ lb Sea Bass and honestly they were everywhere I tried.
Massive amounts of bait everywhere.
June through beginning of July was very slow for me due to my Dad (age 83) being really sick. Miracles due happen and he's back doing everything 100% after 50 days in medical facilities.
July - Aug has been a mixed bag. Again, massive amounts of bait everywhere but catching has been strange. One day it's nothing but big bluefish, another day sporadic decent bass (15-25 lbers), another day nothing, another day schoolies.
Had quite a few good mornings down the canal which was nice.
Just hit Buzzards Bay again earlier this week with my sons and Sea Bass were everywhere, lots of shorts but for them it was non stop catching.
I haven't targeted tuna once, weather windows and my availability just haven't lined up. Still hoping to hit south of MV in the coming weeks.
We'll see what the next couple months hold.
