North Shore Leg ideas/dates/ input thread

Thoughts on date, place appreciated... I'm not running it, just getting the thoughts rolling on it.

That was the worst infestation or blues I've ever seen.

Thanks for clearing them out of my way

I have been able to get a parking lot for us to use... Just a little tricky to find. Waterfront in the Little Harbor shipyard section of Marblehead. My brother has a company in the building, which originally housed Hood Sailmakers. Googlearth 30 Doaks Lane, Marblehead 01945.

The pros of this would be less driving for many, closer to some other north shore locations, ie. Salem, Manchester, Magnolia to the north, Nahant to the south.

The cons are no trip to Surfland, not close to Joe's boat, not close to the currently closed Plum Island reserve

Just offering up an alternative, and trying to feel out if there is any real interest in this event this year......

I actually have only fished a few times in the NS and keep telling myself to join the club and fish there more, but the kids and the call of old favorites to the south keeping calling me. Depending on what night and whats going on I would really like to go. I am in for anything, please keep me in the loop.

The weekend of the 18th is the big NEKF kayak fishing shootout in Salem. There will be kayakers everywhere in the salem and mhead area....
doesn't mean we can't do it then, just giving a head's up.

The 18th is my wifes B-day, That would be another mark on my already lengthy permanent record.

Yeah prob about 100 yakkers or so in total, but they will be spread out all over the north shore, so the popular surfcasting locals should be OK.

Not seeing much interest here..... Should we scrap it for this year and focus on another area Leg?

Tyler and I could be in for somewhere.

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

That because everyone knows there are no fish north of Boston

Found some significantly larger fish around very early today.... Someone make the call and take the lead on this. I don't care whether PI or here. People just need time to make plans in advance. Maybe some folks will want to fish Friday night or Sat dawn patrol before the get together

I am up for Fri and Sat. Seems like PI spot has always worked out fine and the 18th date will work for me. I think we have done the same date as the Yakkers in the past. Let's do a show of hands for the 18th at PI and see how things go. We can do the food list following a decent show of hands.
