Launch in Green Harbor Marshfield.
About 16-20 mile ride out depending on south or north.\
Best bet be on the grounds at sun up.

scituate-free, green harbor-$21, plymouth $5. Go early for 1st light and to be traffic. traffic back late afternoon is always fun.

I leave outta Plymouth, just because its the first ramp I come to when driving up there..... Green Harbor is prolly a shorter ride to the bank. )BE THERE before the sun comes up- you can come home early too. fishn usually peters out by 9AM if the suns up...... don't beat yerself up waiting for the "epic topwater" bite to happen (this is for tuna, by the way)
