Any Big Fish Still Pushing Through North Of Boston???
Just looking for any info on larger stripers...is anyone catching any bass of size, 20 pounds or larger, in the Boston area or north. Just curious to see if there are still large fish around or is it really over in Mass. The Cape was deadsville this past Wednesday and Thursday. Any big fish reports would be appreciated.  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Hey Bigfish, we were out in the boat all day yesterday looking for cod and anything else moving. Caught alot of dogfish thats for sure, got 1 keeper cod out at the B-bouy and Gene landed a nice 20 lb bass in 130 ft of water, on a big jig on the bottom. WAS SWEET!!!! and and awesome way to top off the day. But that was it. Marked some bass off the point on the way in but didn;t fish it as the wind had picked up bigtime and tide was slack. So I wouldn't give up quite yet you may get lucky. I am headed to RI today and see if me can find some fishies. I'll let you know how I do!!!!  |

Hey Christian, yes we go all the way out to the "B" and further, just got to pick the right weather days. The cod haven't really moved in yet to the near shore ledges in any great numbers. Water temp yesterday was 52 degrees. Still alot of bait around. I think the fish are confused by the lack of colder water temps. Its been a weird fall!!!!
Caught a few big macks yesteday on the cod teasers and on there way to the surface were being chased by about 6-8 dogfish right on there tale!!!! We caught about 20 dog's yesterday. I think its time to open commercial season back up on this species!!!  |

Fishing last week, i was getting some cod near shore, but it was 1 for every 10 dogs... 
Then everything went wrong and my day (and boating season) came to an abrupt end. .
Going out (way out) tomorrow with some buddies and hopefully we will score some nice cod..maybe even some haddock....
Smelting..........
Christian, went last week and there were only real small smelts, I never seen them that small, some people were taking them, but I released them, why bother, there ain't no meat on those,,,
I have not gone since, but my buddy went this past tuesday and only got a few decent sized ones, the rest were too tiny and released.
Need a real cold snap...then maybe..

Gonna take me 2 days to recoup from today, went out with Ron M., Joe S., and Charlie.

Got lots of cod and plenty of HADDOCK (yes HADDOCK) a first for me... !!! 
My freezer is packed, Thanks loads to Ron M. and Joe too.
I managed the largest after taking lots of shots from the guys cause of not catchin !!!!!

OK, I'm a wimp, but Jiggin those 24 ozs. in 270 feet of water. MAN its a work out.
Juls, I would go again, but I've tapped almost all my vacation time, and I have to save a couple days for around x-mas.
