Great Chart, John...
Way to the right side where it says C3 is a good spot to start.
Toss out towards the Green Can Buoy. Work into the Gut between the two Islands.
Then, working towards the West, that front beach is all rocks of different sizes. From Baseball size to Barn size. As you round that point coming toward the old barges the cove right there has a gravelly sand bottom and Mussels. I don't know if there is enough of the Barges left to stand on but they were like "Bass Stands" years ago.
That opening on the chart is not there any more. They filled that beach with old barges full of stones and the sand has built up well.
Still working along towards the West you will notice how the beach turns from Sand to Gravel and then to Stones and then Boulders. I explain to folks to take note as this is how sand is made. The rocks get ground up smaller and smaller till they turn into sand.
Any way, as the Bluff starts to rise, you are now in front of the Cuttyhunk Fishing Club, if the tide is right you may notice the rusty marks on some of the boulders that show where the Bass Stands used to be.
This entire shore clear along the South Side, to the West End and around the corner up towards the Light House and Mussel Bed are the spots where Large come to eat.
Where you see "Foul" on the Chart are spots to work over hard. There are several Coves on that South Side that harbor fish.
On the South West Bluff, or Point as the current starts to run to the South gives up Large.
On the Light House point that area marked Foul has a Mussel Bed that brings fish in to feed. The big Cove to the right as you stand onm that point is the "Wash Pond Bend" as the Sheep used to be "washed" in the fresh water pond up in the far end of the Salt Pond that is behind the beach. Bob Tilton told me that there 'was' a Herring Run there when he was young but the Bass ate all the Herring and there isn't any more there.
That big sandy cove gives up Large sometimes. I know people who have taken fish well over fifty pounds along there.
Well, that is about it for now. Any questions? Post and will try to help. GB Outdoors fishes that beach from the shore so he can tell you the real "Hot Spots". I fished it from the boat as well.
