Fishing freaks comment about having bass in the area b4 chumming is really not accurate, cause you shouldn't be wastin anytime fishing at ALL in an area where bass aren't present.
hey spincognito is that the herring plant in gloucester? is that the only one around here? :P and are they processing herring yet? was gonna pick some up for some chum preparation, but its a 40 min drive up to gloucester... so i'd appreciate any info
Yeah that is the one. Not sure of others (New Bedord?)
As of last week they were still landing mackerel. Usually the first part of May it becomes easier to obtain.
Hmmm... just looked out the window and both boats are taking out right now. I may hafta take a ride down there.
There is a herring/mack plant just on the new bedford side of the nb-fairhaven bridge. You can't miss it. It is called "NorPel." I don't know what they are processing, but there was a pretty big gang of seagulls out there at lunch time.
I was just in Archie B&T in Riverside....he had a little film cannister sized chum vial for Fluking. Said it works great when hunk from a 3-way swivel before the fluke rig. I usually use a Atom bullet there and get hits on that but the vial thing got me wondering-will the additional scent be more of an attractant or would the jigging action of the chrome ball?
