Re: Fishing Cape Ann
Hello Flyrod,<br />Thanks for the thumbs up,I will be getting my fair share of the doggies in a week or 2.<br />Did you ever try 3 or 5 ounce squid jigs? You can chum,but the dogs will not touch the jigs.The blues will but they cannot damage them so you should give them a try.I used one under a school of porgies last summer and it performed in a spectacular way.It produced a 36 pound/45 inch striper.The picture is still in Blackbeard's store in Orleans.<br />Anyways,good to hear from you again.<br />Oh yes,something else.There is a book in the stores now called;"The Secret Life Of Lobsters" It is a joy to read,you should give it a try.
The "BIG" stripers are in, no more playing around with the little guys!!! Stripers in the 40+ inch size are being caught daily, well lets say when the weather isn't nassssty!!!! <br /><br />There has been plenty of mackeral around and Saturday came the on slaught of blue fish!!! Hard to get a line with live bait in the water without the blue fish chomping it in half!!!!<br /><br />Now that the blues are here and will drive the macks north, we will be using herring chunks and chumming, which will bring in the dogfish!!! On an average 4hr trip we will catch 30-40 dogfish while fishing for stripers!!!!
