How would you Rate June -so far ?
just curious how people are doing generally, (no spot burning please) and how you would rate June 2006 ?
For me, from Shore- so far, the season has below avg. with a few respectable bass, very few bluefish, and very little bait.
No shortage of mosquitoes, though.

locally for me it's been a dinkfest...and no baitfish.....I usually spend more time down the cape..but have not been motivated to drive.
Ive been fishing close to everyday...and would rate the fishing about a 5

ditto..
A special Thanks to Flap, if not for his kind offer of a skiff ride, the whole month would have been a disappointment.
Weird month, from the outercape beaches.
Found bait, and fewer than normal seals, but not a tap, the other night, saw one dink taken.
Earlier in the month, had plentiful fish, but... all small, for me.
Some decent size fish (20-30 pounders) were taken on the beach, by some. Definatley a Strange June on the cape.
Read about large in NJ and Rhody, and seen some large boat fish here on the cape.

No size what so ever. One night of forty dinks in a two hour span. Other than that....too many skunks. Hoping to turn the tide on Cuttyhunk starting Friday.

Not good, at least I can't say I didn't try. still haven't caught a yellow-eyed sea rat yet. The benefit of the slow fishing is that I spend way more time looking for new surf spots.

June has been slow. May was the best May I ever had with a lot of high teen fish and quite a few mid 20s mixed in. June has been slow with a mid to high teen fish every few nights but no consistency to the pattern. SoCo has been very slow for 2 weeks. Despite what you hear from a select few, the surf scene in Narragansett has been essentially dead. My patrner and I have fished all the usual spots for the last 3 weeks just about one tide every night. We have a few decent fish to show for it but have put in, literally, over 100 man-hours of effort.

I agree
soco has been tough fishing. May was a good month as far as # and weight. June just slowed right down. Decent fish length wise, no stomachs. speed racers at thier finest.
a lot of hours in as well for a couple of decent fish. LAthough I do like this weeks tides the best for us. hopefully something will turn on |

Good to hear its not just me. Early may through about June 6 was one of the best in recent memory. Lots of 17-25# fish and not many smalls.Mostly canal and Gansett.32# was my best so far this year and was caught on memorial day. All surf fishing.Last two/three weeks its like someone flipped the switch to off.Five hours last night in soco for one scuffed eel and partner had a pirahna. The boats on the other hand, are experiencing business as usual. |
