CHATHAM / BARNSTABLE you VOTE July 15th

[RS]

I would have liked to explore pleasant bay and the fishing off of Chatham - it would have been new water for me. But Jon G makes a compelling argument to find another location (lack of parking, fog, shoaled inlets, etc).

I've only been to Barnstable once - this year. Parking is also limited, but there is also easy access from Sandwich or Sesuit. It's also generally in the lee of the normal SW winds.

If we choose Barnstable, my plan would probably be to put in at Sandwich and fish my way to Barnstable.

I'd vote for Barnstable with what I know now. A good argument for Chatham could change my mind, but so far the local members seem to think there is a high likelihood of problems.
