On Wednesday we hosted the inaugural voyage of the "Fisher College Fishing Team" on the 4 hour. Bass fishing on the Shoals was spotty at best. There was plenty of fish, but they weren't very bitey. Our anglers picked up a keeper and a throwback before we moved up to the Path for some blue fishing. The action was good until just after the tide turned when the fish all sank to the bottom. We ran heavy rigs on them, while some other boats jigged. As long as we could get the gear down to them, the picking was good.
On Thursday we headed straight to Provincetown for the 8 hour. The boats fishing the 4 hour reported that there was no sign of bass close to home. We set out the jigs along the Edge off of the Bath House. There were plenty of fish but they weren't overly hungry. We slowly picked away at them for several hours. At flood tide the action changed dramatically. For the remainder of the trip we were consistently doubled up with hungry fish. We easily took our limit of nice fish up to 25 pounds.
