I have seen nary a boat all last week from scorton, parking lot, fingers and everything to Billingsgate. Last few years it has been mobed. Thought I went comm. a week too early it was so deserted. I tried places the last few years that have been good to me in those areas and a few bass but mostly blues or nutin. Everyone that was fishing was over at Billingsgate and north. Got to like full combat fishing over there. I like to find my own fish but did not fair to well. The dog's make fishing any kind of bait hard. This is the time of year you can see schools the size of football fields of surface swimming dogs in CC Bay in the morning. Just got to hope for a change or join the crowd. Paul

Fished Billingsgate all day today. 3 small blues and that was it. Did not see a bass landed and there was 100 plus boats. Guy's are getting a few jigging but I didn't see them. Pretty depressing. Slowest I have seen it in several years. Lots of whining on the radio. So bad I am not even going to bother tomorrow. Weather was beautiful though. Hope you all are doing better than me. If you see me coming turn and run. Nothing but bad luck this season so far. Paul

Sorry about the luck. I am sure it will turn around. I still havnt been out since Sunday. That was my first trip to B-Gate. 100 plus boats on a weekday? How was the ramp? Maybe I'll try diving until things pick up.
My brother-in-law's girlfriends father (????) is supposedly doing well somewhere off P-town in the daylight. B n'law isnt very interested and I havnt been able to get any info. Never been there. Cant go out again (work n' kids) until Friday am or the weekend.

The ramp was fine at Barnstable, dead I'd say, only 10 boats out because there are no, zero , fish off of Sandy neck to Billingsgate. I didn't see any boats from Scorton all the way to Billingsgate. I would imagine they are using ramps over toward Sesuit and up to P-town. Also a lot of guys go out of Sandwich. What kind of boat is Nelson got now I was looking for his Proline and could not find it . The guy, your brother in law's father's etc., is probably jigging. They are getting them that way. That is what the majority of boats are using now. Guess I got to join the crowd. Paul

The bay sucks this time of year!!
If you must fish there then you need to get there at night just before dawn,
Wire line till sun up
after that go home you are done for the day!!
You want fish, you need to go to the other side of the world!!
