| The Fishing is Great... The weekend of the 15th I had Dave Smith, Justin Gilbride, Vin Zackes, Pete Davenport, and Jim Jagemann out on two trips. On both days we did very well. The main area was west of the old Target Ship by about 3 miles. Many of the fish were undersize but a good number of keepers are mixed in. I was out with my wife Anne today, the 20th, and it was not long before we had two for dinner. Other areas that are active are the north edge of Billingsgate Shoals, just outside the Pamet River and along the shore from Race Point to Long Point up in the P-town area. I’m sure there are fish in the Channel in Barnstable Harbor also. The best lure system is the umbrella rig on wire, but single swimming plug will work also, just not as well. It will not be long before the bluefish show up. It has all the signs of being a really good fishing season. |
