Blitzkreigs
I remember fishing off of Barnstable harbor with my brother-in-law and his father about a mile out more than once with all the charters boats around when virtually every rod that had a line in the water was tight in the late sixties and very ealry seventies. They did not pod like the (FFB's) Famous Fishing Bombas picture, but were so thick that almost all of the boats had fish on. It was the best of times and as it turn out for us the worst of times. To say some of those mornings were extraordinary is an understatement. I would bet at times I saw 70 to 80 boats trolling in the area, especially on weekends. No pic's though.
