Fishing Boston Harbor and Beyond

Went of birds and boats working between Tompson and castle island.

Birds working on all sides of Spectacle.

So caught nothing Saturday, but didn’t try too hard. Heard from a friend that Saturday was the Hull Yacht Club fishing tournament with 30 boats out and only 3 keepers caught, no blues.

Sunday went out in the morning did a complete loop of the harbor (out by Hull, around island and back in presidents roads (30 + miles). Finally found some birds working by long island bridge / fire training center. Caught 2 very small blues (real snappers) the smallest was fish tank size, smaller than the lure. If the blues are in and the will grow bigger we could be in for some good blitz in the coming weeks. Still no bunker though…

Let’s hope it get’s going soon.

Nice fish caught in the morning on a pink RonZ in the blitz between north / south main channels, aka Bobs Bass Triangle!

Took Jono, Jason, Greg and Ethan out. Picked up half dozen macks at Nahant and then drifted them in Boston main channel. Hooked 3 fish, only one was keeper size.

Head out at 6am and back at dock by 10:30.

High tide, choppy water, a good amount of birds working off day mark near sunken ledge.

Perfect Friday night for those not stuck on ferry watching the fun by the airport.

Big flock of birds working off of the airport, just in main channel.

The crew is planning to head out into the harbor tomorrow morning and see if we can catch some dinner.

Bird action off other side of channel from sunken ledge, towards Quincy. Friend Chis, caught three already by the time I came by on the ferry.

On evening ferry home saw a number of birds off of Grape, sea herring?

Florence And The Machine- What The Water Gave Me Lyrics

Time it took us To where the water was That’s what the water gave  me And time goes quicker Between the two of us Oh, my love, don’t  forsake me Take what the water gave me

Lay me down Let the only sound Be the overflow Pockets full of  stones

Lay me down Let the only sound Be the overflow

And oh poor Atlas The world’s a beast of a burden You’ve been holding  on a long time And all this longing And the ships are left to rust That’s what the water gave us

So lay me down Let the only sound Be the overflow Pockets full of  stones Lay me down Let the only sound Be the overflow

‘Cause they took your loved ones But returned them in exchange for  you But would you have it any other way? Would you have it any other  way? You couldn’t have it any other way ‘Cause she’s a crueler  mistress And her temper cannot be tamed. But oh, my love, don’t forget  me When I let the water take me

Lay me down Let the only sound Be the over flow Pockets full of  stones

Lay me down Let the only sound Be the overflow
