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

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