That's pretty funny. I was in Grecian Jeweler's last September. He's got pictures of huge bluefin tuna up all over the wall in his Jewelry shop . . . we talked about cod fishing for almost an hour. Great Guy!!! Probably should have asked him about bass fishing while I was in the store [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

CS - good luck on your quest for a Boston Habb'a 50 pounda.

Nick, Thats a beauty all right. What were you using for tackle to hook that baby ?? Down by me in southern Ct. most of the large bass are caught using eels and usually very early in the morning. 3-4am ...Envious in Ct

Nick:

How do you know Jimmy?

He's the brother-in-law of a buddy of mine. He doesn't live too far west, Dracut or Groton, I think.

He burns up trucks towing those crazy boats all over New England like you and I use a pair of shoes.

He sure knows how to catch fish!

Live eels were the ticket this day!

I am sure he burns up trucks, but many transmissions first.

I got to know Jimmy through a friend, ... of course another Greek.

Yasou! - Nick

Nice rockfish Csic!!! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sweet bass! Nice fish!

... sorry, won't find many like that in the Harbor though. North to Cape Anne, south to Cohassett to better your chances [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

John R- you must have heard that a 12 year old kid grabbed a 56 pounder at Providence point ( northern tip of Prudence I.) last month. Now, down our way, all the big ones are off the Block.

That SeaVee is sure impressive! Can any one tell me what the deadrise is on that hull?

I live almost directly across from Providence Point... The thing that makes the Bay a little different than Boston harbor is how close it is to the staging areas of the bass, like Montauk, Block, Cuttyhunk.. So the odds go up (a guy I know caught a 63#er from shore last year in Newport). In Mass, Cohassett south has great exposure/ awesome structure/ deep water / better bait and from there to Plymouth you have the East end of the Ditch was is a big conduit for these fish. Also, when CC Bay warms up and the tuna come in, they can push the bass & blues inshore into those areas. Cape Anne has the cooler waters, great structure, and is more or less ocean front again. Great bait too [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ..

I know a few Boston sharpies that catch a lot of 30s, some 40s, and the odd 50 but if they lived off Buzzards Bay or BLock, they'd do even better....

Me, I'm still waiting for my 40 from shore [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
