Stellwagen Bank, Massachusetts - Saltwater Fishing Report
Stellwagen Bank
We just returned from an excellant fishing trip with Capt Jim on Big Mac Charters, half our group also went with Jims partnet Capt Bill of 4 Sons.
Weather was perfect, fishing was slow, but we did manage to pick up 4-6 fish a drift. Most were just leagal size (Cod) but we did have 3 20+ pounders. Fish bite of the day was Haddock and we got some nive 10 lbers.
We alternated between Jigging and fish clam baits as the bite turned. Capt's Jim and Bill worked hard and we fish hard and got the fish.
A great time with two great Capt's. This would be my 11th years with Jim.
