New boat owner--Need Advice

[Kate]

HI Guys,

I am new to the website/forum and can't believe information in this space! wow. We have a new (used) boat owners (23' Angler walk around). We have been fishing cape cod bay (billingsgate primarily). We have been doing well...keepers every w/e...including a 42"er. I caught my first one a couple of weeks ago...29". A very, very exciting moment for me. Anyway...

Now that the warm, warm, hot weather has arrived...we know the fish have gone to deeper water. We had been around 25-30 feet/wire line/jigging-3 ozs./2.5-3.0kts) and it had been working for us.

This w/e when we tried to go to 40-50 ft. we couldn't get to bottom. Talked to a charter capt. and he told us to slow WAY down...as slow as we can go...

Any other advice? The season had been off to such a great start...I don't want it to end !!

help is appreciated...

thanks !
