Just got in from MV an hour ago. 5 hour wait to get on ferry stand-by. We had reservations for tomorrow, but was pretty much unfishable this AM...
Spoke with DZ midweek, and his success with the bass was best I heard of all week. Saw quite a bit of Bob Huddy, but he had no fish as of this afternoon... Fished beside Ray and Neefa of Linestretcher many mornings at the Light house. (She outfished him!) Also met up with Mr Hunters and girlfriend at the Edgartown docks. Saw Surf Pirate at weigh in too.
Me, I got my first albie yesterday morning, and it made the week. It was my only fish! Hit like a freight train and was a blast to fight on light tackle. Though we fished consistantly with Weezer's Teasers (aka Swimmer), the albie took a metal needle with green reflector tape made by the illustrious Professor M! (Paul, going to retire it for first albie, so I'll need some more for next year.) Sure wish we had albies up here. I thought the rule was a fork length measure, and it was 24 3/4, so I released it. In hind sight, I could have weighed it, as it was over 25" minimum to tip, but is OK.
As DZ said, a LOT of area to cover and learn. I will be watching catches on website carefully to see if fishing gets better.... but I will be back.
I will also be back in the local waters tomorrow, early.....
