Bob,
Ever see all the photos of 40-70 pound fish on the wall at Nelson's B&T at P-town? If so - you ever see the dates? Mostly October, November with some dates coming in early December. The fish are still out there then yet very hard to find but they are still there. 2 years ago one fellow landed a 60+ pound bass at the west end of the Canal, in the middle of November. #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&'s 53 came just before Halloween and he and one of his fellow fisherman caught 40 plus pound fish in the first few weeks of Nov. They are out there. Personally, I'm going to stay out until the very pregnant wife asks me to stay in or 'til just before the baby is born.
Now, you are closer to Rhody than you are to the Cape right?? Hit Rhody. There is often a few extra weeks of blitzing after the Cape cools down. But I certainly wouldn't store your gear for the winter just yet. At least give a few more weeks....
The tackle shops on the outer Cape are already closing???? I know some of the Boston area shops have closed or at least stopped getting eels. But the Cape?
Good luck - I wouldn't give up just yet - besides alot of spots have very few people working them. Not as many nights fishing shoulder-to-shoulder anymore 8)
