Stellwagen Bank, Massachusetts - Saltwater Fishing Report
Mussel Beds

Friday's fishing on the middle bank saw the incoming tide produce best with catches of cod and haddock on both jigs and bait. Haddock up to eleven pounds dominated the catch. Top cod of the day was a nineteen pounder that fell for a seventeen ounce jig with a tube teaser.

Saturday's charter from Pennslyvania saw a tough morning pick of cod and haddock. Fishing some old haunts found the fish feeding on the afternoon tide. Once again Haddock dominated the catch with even a few double headers mixed in. Cod were spotty with most fish falling for jigs and pink teaser combinations. Slacking tides at the end of this week should bring fishing back to normal. We can be reached at www.bigmaccharters.net.....
