Lost my virginity (at Race Point)...
Last year was the first year with the new 21' Mako at the Cape so we stayed close, not going out past 8 or so miles for safetys sake. We fished both Cape Cod bay and the sound, never hit Buzzards bay. Last week, Sunday 26th I was at the Sesuit launch, the waters were calm, forecast good and the gas tank was full. The gentlemen that was launching next to me advised things were "good" at Race point so I bit the bullet and one hour later I was trolling at that site. It was absolutely beautiful, waters were calm, nice lighthouse to view and a nice handfull of boats telling me that I was in the right spot. The day before I was at "The Path" just north of Billingsgate and landed 3 Stripers (keeping the 34") and 1 nice Blue so I was excited about fishing the famous "Race Point". I knew the fish might be bigger so I put on a big trolling GRS and one hour later landed a 37"er. Both the 34" and the 37" were caught on GRS lures which I happen to like so I just placed a order with Gary for a few more for the shelf. I would like to head back there this coming weekend but not sure if the bite will still be on plus the waters have to be reasonably calm as it can be a pretty long haul in rough water. If anyone cares to join me (with or without a boat) you are more than welcome.
