After 1st day only small handful knew, 2nd day few more and after 3rd day there were 100's of boats from all over the Cape even from Boston. Looked like a parking lot out there everything from 50' sportfishing to 4' zodiacs. I knew about it the 2nd day but could not make it till the 3rd day which by then was a zoo and not worth it. I just turned off the engine and watched 50 to 75 boats all trolling tube and worm work an area the size of 2 football fields it was pretty comical to say the least. Lucky guys the first 2 days made some serious coin. Paul

I was there and got my dad his first keeper bass. It was madness. Charter boats were rude and cut people off.
