Any fishing in here anymore?

Log in.

go to new posts.

four topics come up, all in the political forum.....

It would be nice if members could find a way to contribute to this fishing site that is hosting their political forum..... We're being overrun here....

Those topics might be more apropos in the Political Forum.

Want to know what blows, knowing there are lots of bunker and large in a spot you can’t park in after Memorial Day. I got by without getting tagged last week and although I only hooked two fish, one would probably make my top five in weight. I have learned the Harbormaster does the ticketing and I’m trying to find out what money I’d be risking by hitting it again.

I saw a story on last night's news about a fish kill of menhaden up the river in Somerville... Was surprised I had not heard about it here or in the community before that. Second one in a week.

It’s happened in Plymouth before, too many fish and not enough oxygen, I doubt it was blues pushing them onshore; not with so few around these days.

I remember fishing out in front of the Plymouth harbor jetty before they died in mass. That was probably maybe 85ish and back in my Basstracker V17 aluminum. Gator 15 lb blues would push big schools of bunker and set up waves almost a foot tall as they rushed to escape. Wild day and very sore arms.

Can you figure out a way to park elsewhere and bike in?

Ross, the thrill has gone out of it for me. No challenge anymore. jamokes, googans catching 30s and 40s and killing everyone. I just choose not to participate anymore.

I caught and YES, killed my share back in the day so now I'll sit on the side. I just have no desire to fish given the stock situation.

I know there are Fluke and BSB and Scup but I was always someone who just chased the striped ones.

So I've let it go. I'm selling off a lot of my gear. I'll keep a bare minimum of the real high end stuff to pass on the grand babies.

No boat, back in the suds.

Or if the political forum had its own password like other hidden ones, that way we wouldn't even have to see the incessant whining.

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

I know..but all the bitches posts show whenever I check the site. "New posts" and it's all that's there, so I close out of the site altogether. No big deal, but the same buffoons crying over the same bull#^&#^&#^&#^& gets old. So I rarely come on or contribute anymore. No big loss I know.

For the win! Or make it like the cutty forum, that way we won't see any. Give them their own password and they can bitch at each other in their own virtual world where Trump is still their President.

Oh, how’s this,I’m first guy out of Barnstable ramp the other morning just b 4 first light, had the whole harbah to myself, just perfect....

I’m 10 yds off a bar throwing eels at the bar, there’s 100 yds + between me and a beach on the other side of me,,,, next boat out is a tin with a single guy,,, no spring chick, guess what side he goes by WOT,,,,, a hole

I’m not sure who I hate more, the a hole boat guys or the a hole drivers this year... September, bring it on

may be one of the things actually keeping the site alive.....

The more vocal here are so worried about spot burning or killing fish. We worry about saying "the fish are biting' thinking that magical lurkers will swarm out to the water. These idiots don't need this site to find and over-kill fish, there are way more efficient ways out there, than to filter through all of the politics and false info on this site.

Make the whole damn site members only, then people can actually share information and fish stories, and god forbid might actually fish together in the same "hot" areas.
