[Mr. Sandman]

I am holding off a little on bass until the water temp starts to move down just a tad.. cold water is close...was offshore last week and ran thru 54 deg water (really!) , had to put a coat on.

Thursday was perhaps the nicest day weatherwise of the year. Took a boat ride to visit the waters around the Grey Lady. Wow is this place choked up with bait. Big bluefish so thick munching on small butterfish, my boat is a mess with what was up-chucked. What a day! After a while I just took the hooks off and and just annoyed them. The water is so clear you see them in the rips, like soldiers on a mission. Everytime I fish Nantucket I am amazed at all the rips they have around that island. And there are fish at each of them. Just an amazing place. A different species on every shore. I'll be back again shortly.
