Saturday looks like it is going to be nice. Not sure about the wind though. I was planning on dropping in my newly purchased skiff to get a feel for it before the fishing starts. How close do Cod come in this time of year? I remember catching one off the Scituate coastline a few years back on a spoon.

I was out this past November and was catching them not 2-3 miles off the shore. A lobster boat came up in late Nov. and the Cap'n threw us a 30" cod that was in one of his traps.

First shot off Scituate should be around Tar Pouch, if that doesn't produce cruise the 70 ft line until you mark fish.......they are there. |

Ummmm this is interesting, Ive never caught Cod intentionally. With that said any special lures, jigs, etc? I was going to take my J16 out in Duxbury Bay for a shake down but dropping in Green Harbor and heading down to High Pines and dropping a line sounds better. We'll see how the weather is.

A 6oz crippled herring should do ya good. Thats all you will need in that water. You can jig with one rod and have a clam rig on the bottom with the other.
