Was out there last night good topwater action, other than that slow and lots of small fish. Did catch a black seabass though, and I spied Niko out there, but he didn't see me.

The bite was on again today if you were in the right place at the right time. RR and I (separate boats) had fun for about 90 min in the action. We boated 3 keepers in the mix of constant action.

Looked like they were feeding on baby macs 4-5" by the regurgitated fish.

Was on the blue catamaran, on a charter with some friends, it was nice to fish and not have to work the boat for once. You guys were like 70-80 yards from us before you shot back out of the gut.

Maybe the popularity of a fishing message board is waning as a social vehicle. I'm not sure message boards have an infinite life span.

it's crazy how many little macks are out there. i jigged up around 60 of them today and put them to good use. the bite has slowed in that area. let's hope these macks stick around i want to grab some and bridle them up as tuna bait - don't know if they will work but i'm gonna find out

Scutterbutt,

I'm sorry if any offense was taken from my post, as there was none intended. My point was that, just like in any area of life, a crowd always has its share of idiots.

While I am anything but well seasoned at fishing or "elite", the little personal experience I have is that people boat the same way people drive cars - like they own the road (or water in this case) and anyone in their way had better move fast. Generally, people don't have any consideration for those around them, run up on and over breaking fish which immediately pushes them down, cast on top of or over other people's lines and pretty much all out don't give a crap about anyone but themselves - I'd say this goes for at least 50% of the people we encounter out on the water (or on shore).

The above is, in my opinion, the biggest reason people get pissed about spot burning - be it boat or shore.

With regards to your comment on "99% of the folks that visit here look for tips on where and when to fish...", I wouldn't doubt that. I'd bet that on any given day over 1000 people visit this website, most of which probably aren't registered. Why would you want to dish out information to people that don't contribute back?

Talk in generalities and its OK. You argument RE sport burning is the one that makes sense until it happens when the fleet shows up as a result. Doesn't always happen (or probably usually). Spot talk from shore spots can often be tougher and different because many shore spots can't handle much pressure without getting closed. Not as big a deal on the harbor.

REALITY... John R yes IF the fleet shows up.... I say if cause every one that ponied up for a MA Comm. lisence or is just reading the paper has been in my neck of the woods lately out on the cape... And when it goes from 50 ish boats to well over a couple hundred in a day or 2 and you wanna talk nit wits, beat offs and morons??? I find it funny I am their for work yet I see so many CT RI boat stickers its not funny... I mean one launch out there you cant get into... The town is making it resident only next year though... I mean miles of trucks and trailers on the side of the road... Any how my 2 cents dont worry bout most the fleet and the many many other beat offs their all ready occupied and annoying us who work/ live in this area

Well your post didn't work as you needed a shoe horn the last few days in my neck of the woods. 2 am and 20 boats already out there. Daybreak 100 boats.

Common on guys get up there to Hull they are killing them.

I luv when someone post about good fishing where I don't go.

spot burning about great fishing at shore spots does no good at all because it winds up pissing the neighbors off from parking issues to litter, eventually access can be lost.

boat spots are different and yes fish swim and have fins last I checked, but I would never get specific about a boat spot ever. generalities are as close as you need to be in a report.

Go ahead and hype up a specific spot and see what happens if it's an easy access area the sea will look like a parking lot if you hype it up enough. so I guess it's all in how you do it.

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.

glad they went up your way as we had it pretty crowded in CC Bay until your area heated up. Still crowded here but not as bad since word got out up there. Hope you did well since that is how you earn your living.
