Largest Cod of Season aboard RELENTLESS

Yesterday on friday the 19th of August we had a great trip with Ken Mecik of Bayonne, NJ and his two sons Dave and Kevin. Leaviing Green Harbor in Marshfield at 3:30 AM(yes you read it correctly) due to tides we headed to the "BE" buoy to troll for tuna. They were there and five times we had them slamming behind the rigs but they just would not take the bait. I personally believe with the calm seas they were a little on the leader shy side. We will make it up come 01 September when charter boats will be able to retain 3 per day.

Well anyways we headed off east of Stellwagen and hit the cod and haddock pretty good. Ken landed the largest a whale cod weighing 62 LBS. The photo was taken after being bled which does not reflect the true girth this speciman had.

Back to it again later this week and I hope everyone enjoys their weekend.

Respectfully,

Dave
