I launch out of Green Pond Falmouth alot. In past seasons, I would head directly over to MV, work Middle Ground and end up down by Devils Bridge/Gay Head. Work my way back the same way.
Last season though, I would hug the Falmouth shoreline and start at Wood's Hole and work my way south, tight along the Elizabeth Islands. As Scott says, tight is where the action is. I've had my best luck from shore to 20' depths.
You can do all sorts of fishing there too which I really like. You can snap wire, troll, drift eels/chunks in various "holes", cast along/into shore.
Cuttyhunk is another story from boat. This area definitely intimidates me. Boulders shoot up outa nowhere. You need many pairs of eyes here and need to proceed very cautiously.
I will say my biggest fish to date was taken along these islands last May, memorial day weekend.
