Small stuff

ran a few plugs on wire along the jetties and over the shoals last night on the start of the incoming... I picked up a few small fish( on a white bottle)far back from the mouth on the outer bar just as the rips turned frothy...the fish were there for about 20 minuets or so before they dissappeard..no great shakes.. all in the 26 - 30" range... nothing in along the jetty's or inside the mouth... these were back a few hundred yards from the entrance... my guess was a quick pit stop on their way south...

I finished the tide with eels up inside where I fished the night before... I hit a couple of rock piles up river... sadly.. they were barren... only the seals were inhabiting them.... the wind finally drove me off the water as the tide ebbed...same result as the night before...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

A lookdown! Netted one of those in the Carolinas back in the 70s. So now they're up here, eh? Ahem, and now it's in the 80s in October.
No, there's no evidence for global warming-it's a Chinese hoax!

water was pretty warm last weekend - with air temps in the 70's this past week (where I am) ... gotta wonder if that's gonna stick around for a while.

Boy if anyone has kids or grandkids in the Plymouth mass area, the inner bay is just loaded with bait and schoolies and you can't help but catch. Launched at Stevens Field at 10:30, about 50 fish later the yak was back on the trailer at 1pm and I was heading home. I could have stayed and caught as many as I wanted, but it was hot and I'd had my fun on freshwater gear. All on a 6" bubblegum jerkbait, fished weightless on top with a 5/0 owner 90 degree hook and screw lock bait holder. I had to trim the tip once, but with small bass they last.

CC Bay Blues

Large bluefish are wreaking havoc on peanut bunker in CC Bay. All fish were between 15-18lbs, puking up peanut bunker. 15'-35' of water. Had doubles & triples often for a few consecutive hours. Before this outing, I could count the bluefish I caught this season on one hand. This was last weekend.

All topwater, strikes were ferocious!!
