Suggested trips for me and my 12 year-old for 2019!

Love putting a list together of potential trips for my 12 year-old and I. I often wish that free time and disposable income weren't limiting factors.

I've discovered some great trips from those here, things I would not have discovered otherwise. Looking for any and all suggestions for 2019. My 12 year-old does well on a boat, never been even a little bit seasick, he can get a little pouty if the action is really slow. Not interested in going offshore for tuna/sharks yet, maybe another year or two.

In the last 2 years, we have done:

May sea bass in Buzzards Bay (did it twice, limited out twice, was freezing cold and windy both times)

May striper/winter flounder combo in Boston (Fishbucket is really, really good with kids)

6-pack charters out of Pt Judith out to Block for stripers/bottom fish. Always done scup/sea bass, he hasn't targeted fluke yet, would like to try that.

Nighttime trip to Block with Cohen, that was probably his all time favorite trip, even though Cohen would say it was a slow night by his standards. Not by ours!

he did one dedicated tautog trip that absolutely stunk, miserable weather and lousy fishing. Wouldn't mind trying it again.

What are we missing? I keep hearing good things about the springtime haddock fishing in shallow water (is that Stellwagon Bank?). Would like to give that a shot.

What else?
