Said that we are about to put cars on the road that require no driver, which will take you where you want to go, while you sit back and relax; yet we can't figure out a way to protect what we have for the future. I remember so fondly fishing the milk run of ledges I'd frequent out of Scituate, where ever spot held dozens of nice fish and your rod was bent all morning until you were tired of catching. A slow day was 50 fish, with several nice keepers and I'm not fishing bait either, that was all light tackle plastic. I remember wondering what was happening as each trip suddenly was less and less productive, where in the end I'd have to work real hard in a morning for 15 fish and maybe one keeper.

It got to a point, where I opted to travel an hour further to launch in the Westport River and at least have the option to catch a few more and mix in some bottom feeders for the table. I miss the old milk run, but have really enjoyed learning new waters and targeting species I hadn't had an opportunity to fish for. Not to mention the beauty of the Islands, so even on a slow day, you are happy to be on the water.

Game Fish!
