Were is the bass.

I'm getting sick of catching blues even though they are fun.Were are the stripers anyone catching on the south shore. I heard from some pretty reliable sources its been dead down there. I'm not looking for spots because I know them all just wondering when and if there hitting on the R.I. south shore. I dont want to waste the gas and time if not pretty steady.

Painfully slow up here in northern Mass, I did catch a couple last weekend with sea lice so it has started couple weeks and it should start down there to.

I had fish last night to 23-24 pounds. I hear there was a slug of much larger around in SoCo. Not sure what the hard W wind tomorrow will do... They are around and will come through in waves. You just gotta be out there to intercept them...

No doubt. Had back to back slam zany the last two nights.Got at least 20 fish over the 20# mark, 9 or 10 well over the 30# mark. All from shore on the east coast.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

The whole week of the full moon was outstanding, the bulk of that school had moved on by the weekend...Now it's just run and gun.

Pat, some decent bass on peanuts just west of your school, first light, think eel grass! Those bluefish blitzes aren't all blues, take my word for it. I for one would like to find out where those bass leading this weeks club tourney were caught

Took some vacation days this week and I picked a couple good ones, fishing Monday and Wednesday in Boston. Now I know what you RI guys were having so much fun with this spring, it's been a long time since I caught that many cows in such a short amount of time. Picked up 6 over 30 lbs yesterday, 3 of those were over 35lbs and I dropped a real cow right at the boat after a long battle; she was a good 45-50 lbs. It's been a long time since I have seen fishing like that, I credit that to the return of our beloved pogies. If this fish move out in 2-3 weeks, you RI guys will be seeing them soon.

I haven't seen anything from Shore in 2 weeks here in Eastern CT. I sure hope something happens soon. I need a fix! Caught plenty from the boat last weekend though.
