Last year, I heard of one being taken then middle of April, followed shortly by one by #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& (34 inches). My first keepers last year came in very early May on jigs and live herring and were in the mid-teens pound wise... My first mass keepers were early May (for some reason late April sticks in my head but that must be wrong)...
Things seem to be starting off a little slower this year than last (and last year was slow, some cape spots were getting consistent fish before some rhody spots) but by the end of April..
Once the big fish start coming in numbers - they'll be chasing the herring. Plugs or flies that imitate the herring are used but usually not a substitue for the real thing, that when fished live, is a real blast... It's not the only thing that works but arguably the best...
Best to use from a boat? Live herring followed by live mackeral
