I am not sure about this episode as I have not see the entire show yet, just the clip and the photos on the website (Sea bass in Nantucket sound) but YOU tell me what you think...
Here is the link

The second chart shows them fishing in mid nantucket sound halfway between Great Point and Monomoy. The distance between GP and Monomy is about 9 nautical miles. so they are about 4.5 miles off the beach fishing a wreck for seabass.
Now look at the photos of them fishing....see the beach behind them? It doesn't look 4+ miles away and there appears to be houses in the picture. The last time I looked at GP and Monomoy it was not built up like that and to see a house on the cape would be seveal more miles away because both point jut out a long way from where houses would be. Maybe they moved inshore to take these photos? I could be wrong on this one as I have not seen the complete show but it seems to me that this is not the X spot the on the chart. I have to say the video clip appears to look more like where they say they are I got a glimse of land way off in the distance but the resolution is very poor. I look forward to the show.
Again, it is a good show and I like the website details. I have never jigged for seabass but I plan to after watching this. I think they are fishing the wreck Lacawanna (

but I am not sure. Look forward to the show
BTW wreck fishing is a lot of fun out there on a *nice* day. (but it has to be a nice day or else) When the conditions are right and you get over the sweet spot your party has a non-stop field day on these tasty critters.
