I mainly fish rivers and the Canal late April thru May. This year my fish count and size of fish caught has been waaayyy down from years past. Not exactly sure if there is one reason/multiple reasons for this.
I have heard and seen with my own eyes, seals at the river mouths I usually fish. For the Canal, someone mentioned in another post the lack of herring in the run. A good thought and perhaps why bass are slowing down on their way thru but not sticking around? Although I did catch my first keeper there 2 weeks ago.
I did have luck was this past weekend, saturday morning, fishing a few bays in SShore MA from a boat. Birds working for hours, most fish bigger than 20" and 1 keeper in the mix.
My cousin has run into some bigger fish in Cape Cod bay already from shore. These fish are between 15-35lbs and all have been around local river mouths with lots of herring.
So, I think they're here but I don't know where.
