June 1st and 2nd (SAT & SUN)

SAT- 7-1 3/4 day and 1:30-6PM Half Day
SUN- 7-1pm 3/4 Day

I really dont know where to begin when it comes to this weekend! I have so much id like to tell you all but i work here and i fear it would sound like bullshit if i told you how good the fishing was BOTH days AND Friday. I guess if you've read my fishing reports before, you know i dont lie. If it's bad fishing, i'll tell you its bad and how bad. Some people might not agree with the way i write these things but i refuse to be censored...haha

Saturday started off with a bang. We had a 7-1 charter and the fishing was great. We anchored all day in just over 200 ft of water and only had to move once after that. The first stop was an hour and the second stop was just over 2 hours of straight fishing mayhem. Large haddock, Med Haddock, All sizes of Cod, a big wolffish, some big pollack and some big cusk were what filled the coolers and ziplocks. It's great when you have people on board who really put the time and effort into paying attention to the advice given by the crew. What a difference it makes dealing with getting fish over that rail, tangles and everything else a crew deals with during a trip. I'll never tell how many we caught, but illl tell you we caught a lot. Book a reservation with us and you can see for yourself. Its funny, fishing seems to be getting better and better on the inshore grounds which gives me hope for the future of this industry here in New England.

Saturday afternoon was a half day open boat and we did well for having a full boat. Its half day fishing, thats all i can say. If you expected to pay less, spend less time on the water and catch more, than someone told you a story. However if you're on vacation with your family and looking for an afternoon of fun with the kids, this is it. Everyone had a blast and we caught a couple fish in the process.

Sunday started off with a question mark as far as if we'd even get the day in. The morning looked OK but as the day went on the forecast was going to shit and there was nothing we could do about it. The fishing Sunday morning was just as good as Saturday and we went in a totally different direction due to the weather and the seas. Cod of all sizes was the mainstay of the day with a few cusk mixed in. Another day where we maybe made 2-3 stops if i remember correctly. The fishing was hot and the bite was on all day. 

For the 3rd day in a row, the decks were bloody and the bags were full. We had a great group of people with us on Saturday with Dave M winning the pool with a 15 LB cod. But a close second and high hook of the trip was Sonia Giddens. She didn't realize she had them on half the time but hey, whatever works!!! LOL

The fishing is hot, the decks are red and the summer rolls on. I cant believe its already June.
