boston harbor
I had a pretty fun morning on Saturday fishing the harbor islands. I was able to get some better herring this week and pretty quickly too. I've been trying a strategy of casting plastic to the rocks while livelining a herring as close to the structure as possible. Seemed like a great idea, but in practice, the bait doesn't stay in there very long.
I spent some more time letting the bait work in good structure and putting down my lure. I ended up with 5 fish, from 32-34"... 2 on plastic, 3 on herring. I had a couple other runs on the bait and had a few schoolies follow my lure... which has been happening alot over the past couple weeks. Also had a few fish chase my herring up top, but not take it. So, there were quite a few fish around and I had action of some sort for a couple hours.
I saw the biggest fish I've ever seen period. I thought it was a shark at first, but it was a huge bass. Judging from the fish I caught and the way they looked in the water, it had to be close to 50"... I threw a cast in front of it, but it was pretty close to the boat and probably was spooked.
One of these weekends, I'm gonna get a really good one... but had a really fun morning.
