Any albie sightings?????

Sick of all the political threads taking up space here... Any talk about albies? I am ready to chase them... Been two years since I had one hooked up! What is the word out there?

Hard to get excited about fishing in this heat, but I am looking forward to some hardtail action.

I read that there is a school of Cobia off PJ. A 56# was taken 2 days ago.

No boat, back in the suds.

Went down and chased ‘em in Buzzards bay with a guy a long time ago. Roared around at 60 miles an hour and didn’t catch anything. Better off fishing for ‘em in the Carolinas; my Dad and I did pretty well for ‘em down at Cape Lookout. They have good Cobia there too. Saw a guy get a big one on, towed his boat all over the place for more than half an hour.

OMG
I can’t imagine being hooked up with one that size, that must have been epic. 56 pounds of groceries, I hope they had more than one gaff, those things will beat the inside of your boat all up.


Hopefully we will see Albies soon on the south side.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

On Friday from Green Pond to New Seabury out to the rips and back. No sight of albies or bones. Tons of micro bass at sunrise and better than expected sea bass. My goal was fluke, but no dice there.
