Maybe I better keep them 55 Gal Barrles I have in the classafied?? We will need them for gas!!
That would be 165 + The 65 I have now and that will give us a total 230 gals!!
Can you say BOMB!!

Canalratt1 · 09-25-2004, 10:01 AM

I know we are all leaving from Weymouth but for your future information MJ, if there is a decent ramp near P-town you are real close to good fishing. You would be surprised at the cod AND Haddock caught right near the beach. The guys trolling for bass look at you kind of strange when your flinging cod jigs. Stelly is not too far off from there. The closest ramp to Stelly for time and milage seems to be Green Harbour, we usually launch from there when we trailer, if its to rough we will hit the H or head North and fish the ledges all great ares.

RI Popper · 09-25-2004, 02:31 PM

it's a long drive to drive out to Truro to launch. I just assume heading out of green harbor or weymouth.

I've caught cod less than a mile off P town myself

macojoe · 09-25-2004, 02:35 PM

RI I live in the mid Cape. I can be at the secuit ramp in 15 min. and I for get but I think it is like 8 or 9 miles to p-town from there.

I would like to try it sometime?? I guess I am going to have to do a search and destrot mission over there soon.

RI Popper · 09-25-2004, 02:43 PM

Just don't wear your purple T shirt or you might get the gaff yourself

oops.

ThrowingTimber · 09-25-2004, 03:33 PM

Sorry if I didnt respond in time, just got home today. I got a squidder matched to a shimano tallus 6'6", this ok? John R I'll ride with ya if your boat is done, I'm very interested in going.

RI Popper · 09-25-2004, 03:37 PM

More than likely that will be just fine. Chances are we'll be staying in shore. The bite should be in by then. I typically only use up to 10 oz pipe jigs unless there is a strong wind.

ThrowingTimber · 09-25-2004, 04:27 PM

Thanks Armand!

macojoe · 09-25-2004, 04:29 PM

I think there is one seat open in Quick Decision boat?? You should be able to get a seat there.
I don't John boat going to be ready!!

And that should be the last seat there is unless we get a cancle or another boat joins in.

I am glad we had just anough boats and just anough guys to fill them!! I would have hated to say no somone can't go or that boat has to go it alone, This all worked out perfect so far!!

MikeTLive · 09-25-2004, 05:30 PM

So tell me how this flotilla of yours works.
Do you all go out at once, and circle up when you find fish?

macojoe · 09-25-2004, 06:38 PM

Find fish and circle the wagons!! Fish away!!

Well I think we will all set out at the same time and when someone finds a good place to fish they can call the others.

I am sure 9 boats are not going to stay toghter all day but we should not all be to far from one another and no one boat should be alone!!

This way we all get fish, have contact with one another, and if anyone gets in trouble someone is close by to help!!

I no some will want to go off on there own, and thats ok but this is a party trip for us all to get to meet with one another, and learn a new fishing area.

I hope we will all stay some what toghter.

Usually when I go out with friends, I like to say we go toghter and come back toghter !! This leaves no one alone.

eathier way I am sure it will be a blast! I just need to get a radio before then!!

I went out on Captain John's for the all day Stellwagon trip with my Dad yesterday.

The fishing was unbeleivable. Well over 400 fish kept, and not too many dogs out there.

Lots of really nice haddock and cod. Saw my first wolffish and sea pout. People with their own gear (teasers etc) definitely caught more than those without but the fishing was superb for all.

The captain said it was one of the top 3 days he has ever had out there.

Youngmoon74 · 09-26-2004, 09:58 AM

How was Capt John's?(boat size, # of ppl etc)

BrianS · 09-26-2004, 10:01 AM

This trip worked well
The boat holds I think 70 or 80 people.. but they hold this trip to 50 people max...

its a special trip they do on saturdays.. costs a we bit more.. but worth it.

every other slot was empty... not too many tangles (the few dogfish caught were the culprit)

Youngmoon74 · 09-26-2004, 10:06 AM

wow that's nice... I went on yankee fleet last week on a wed and they put too many ppl on....lots of tangles and dogs. How long did it take to get out to stellwagon? and is the all day 8 hrs?

BrianS · 09-26-2004, 10:43 AM

2 hour ride...

6am-4pm

so what... 6 hours fishing?

Youngmoon74 · 09-26-2004, 10:53 AM

not bad, we went form 7-4, 2hr ride not a bad trip out but too many dogs and too many ppl that day....o well can't have it all....

Raider Ronnie · 09-26-2004, 07:09 PM

I was out by the b bouy doing a little exploring for cod.
Got a few shorts!
Lots 2 jigs

Did I mention I HATE cod fishing inshore?

I think I know where I'll be going for the group cod trip!

Vectorfisher · 09-26-2004, 07:26 PM

Ronnie don't feel bad I lost an umbrella that probably cost me $ 35 to make up today

that'll teach you to troll on that side of the jetty

Cod Hunter · 09-27-2004, 10:05 AM

I was out East of Stellwagen yesterday. Caught 14 Cod with 8 keepers up to 13 pounds, 5 Haddock, all keepers to 5 1/2 pounds and quite a few Dogfish-some even on teasers. The fish are out there and I guess the Haddock are moving in shallower. I launched out of Plymouth and ended up doing most of the catching in 150-170 just east of the bank. I had never caught a Haddock on my boat so that was pretty cool. Looking forward to the trip on the 23rd.

Vectorfisher · 09-27-2004, 04:39 PM

Actually link that was in Vineyard Sound where I know I can bring in a Bass, unlike Buzzards Bay

Ronnie you have to save the 45 oz. Jigs for wildcat
not inshore

BTW what is the round trip to wildcat??

Haddock I want a Haddcock

Canalratt1 · 09-27-2004, 06:27 PM

RR you only lost two jigs? Around the B thats not bad. Stelly you rarely lose any. Frank if the weather permits Wilcat is not out of the question but the haddock are closer, I'll have some spots.

I lost 2 16 oz jigs, junk ones also!!!
I know better than to use good ones inshore!

Raider Ronnie · 09-27-2004, 07:06 PM

If it's good,
I'll be out east of Stellwagen or out to Wildcat this Sat.
Anyone else heading out that far this coming weekend?
Ronnie

RI Popper · 09-27-2004, 07:10 PM

Not yet anyway. Still too many stripers around block Island. This weekend I'm hoping to get some more stipers around the block

been killing them there.
