Not a Spot or Report Thread - but how have your areas been doing?

Not a Spot or Report Thread - but how have your June areas been doing when compared to last year or the past few years?

Now being in the second week of July I'm wondering if a slow (for most) June is readying people for a rough July. What do you think?

I'm unqualified to answer as I missed most of June

not so good of a month fishin from the shore on the vineyard, but the boating around the vineyard hasnt been bad with several bass in the 20 pound range taken. either way, i still give more time from the shore than from the boat.

A terrible June seems to be giving way to an at least decent July. We'll see what the rest of the month brings.

SURF - I'd defeinitely say June sucked my left one. July has been SLIGHTLY better, but a few fish doesn't make a trend by any means.

Probably the worst June/early July on the Canal in my memory

Yesterday I sat at MMA, and walked from the RR bridge to the Bourne and back. I didn't see a single cormorant. Bait would seem to be non-existent, although a few terns were picking microscopic sized bait off the surface out in the middle off the control center.

Alot of 20# class fish around the vineyard off the boat. Southside surf fishing was terrible. And yes, the canal sucked worse than any other june I can remember.

Me too, but got out sat nite in my usual neighborhood and it was slow. That being said, there are always fish to be caught. Will make some adjustments and get dialed in before too long I'm sure.

I did OK considering the fact that I haven't put in a ton of time. Lot of small fish this year.

My daytime spots have been loaded with people so I haven't fished them in about 4 weeks. Nighttime spots have been pretty good and should be getting real good.

Heaven, I'm in heaven...

Narragansett Bay is LOADED with Pogies. The big girls have moved South but if you don't mind a long boat ride and some searching around there's plenty of 25 to 35# fish to be had.
I am having the best year of my life. June was unbelievable and July has been the same with the excepting that it's a longer ride to find big fish.

BTW, had a couple of my old friends from the surf on the boat last Thursday. I asked them if boat fish still didn't count as they slid a 47" bass over the side to swim away. Just a lot of smiles!!!!

No boat, back in the suds.

I am going to have to befriend a RI guy next year. They allow guys from mass to fish RI don't they?? It is only a small boat.

I did not catch a single a Bass in the Boston harbor from the shore (various locations) in June. However, went out early 7/4, landed 3 Keepers on squid in 1 hours time (Grilled 1). Have not been out since, lots of work related stuff and my girlfriend complains I spend to many friday and saturday nights fishing.

Jim, can I come and fish with you this weekend?

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

June was awfull July just started so it is hard to say one nice fish the other night so I'am HOPING things will get better in July it ussally does. The fish aren't moving much so if you find a nice school they should be around for the summer.Like Jim said fish deep with eels.
