Hey,
Any of you guys use braid on a boat? Just wondering how PO'd the boat would get.
Thanks,
Rick

I cant wait for it. I sharped all my cod jigs and got the teasers all set. My old AS bag is now my cod fishing bag, thing weighs a ton.

[BrianS]

if a slot opens for some reason, please let me know.. i have a +1more that wants in.

a little over 3 weeks away boys. here is the plan for the pools - pool #1 will be a $10 entry, the biggest cod will win 50%, the biggest non-cod will win the other 50%. so with 40 guys each winner should get around 200 bucks. pool #2 will be the "high roller pool", $20 entry and the biggest fish takes it. pools are optional but i can think of many occasions the guy w/ the big fish didn't enter the pool. let's go kill some fish

[JackK]

IMO biggest non-cod in #1 should get 25%, but that's just me... Although it would be funny to see a $200 ocean pout if we don't get into haddock/pollock.

Do porbeagles count for #2?

[The Dad Fisherman]

Do Dogfish count as Non-Cod?

[striperman36]

porbeagles should be non-cod but could also be biggest fish

[JackK]

And the way I read it, could one fish potentially take both pools?

That's it- I'm bringing the 80w and black magic we goin sharkin'

[niko]

lets spread the wealth and not be greedy. if you win one pool you are out of the rest. i would rather have 3 guys w/ smiles on their faces than 1 guy w/ fat wallet that everone hates. in the non-cod catagory and the high roller all legal keeper fish can win. so yes a legal porbeagle is elligable - a wolffish is not

You need practice...

[ThrowingTimber]

If anyone bails let me know I got a buddy who is a good candidate for the all day puker award.

[Rob Rockcrawler]

Those are some big ass sand eels.

[JackK]

Saw those same ones today- absolute monsters. The cod are loaded with them.

Recommended gear to bring? Provided gear?

[zacs]

same question here. i have a lot of gear, but heavy jigs (over 4oz.) are not in my arsenal... rod? reel? line?

[eelskimmer]

May start a new thread if this doesn't
get any attention. I live in DEDHAM
and will leave at 3:30AM for Salisbury,
one hour trip. By myself, can take 2
more plus gear. PM if you live near by
and we can decide on meeting place.
Am thinking of parking lots for St. Susanna
or St. Sebastian,

[Goose]

what i usually do is bring 2 setups. one for bait and one for jigging. i prefer to jig but truth be told all my big cod have been on some sort of bait. for a jigging rod i've got an 8' st croix rated to 20 oz paired up w/ a torium 20 w/ 50#braid to a 20' topshot of 60# mono to a 80#leader. for a bait setup just a cheap 7' trophy rod w/ a penn 320gt2 , same line - nothing fancy. for jigs it depends on the weather and where/how deep we fish. maybe someone else can chime in with some intel about that. if the wind is light and we're not deep than you can get away w/ light stuff 7-10 oz. but more likely we'll be jigging 10-20+ oz. remember there are 40 other guys fishing around you - if you go too light you'll scope out too quick and tangle alot. ideally you want to be as verticle as possible. i've got a big ass jig bucket i'll bring and you guys are welcome to dip into it as needed. i poured a ton of 16 and 20 oz bank sinkers at leadfest too. i cant wait to watch eelskimmer sweat with a double header of pollock.
