Bass gone???

[Ed]

I think the bass have left the north shore of Boston. I was out in Ipswich Bay yesterday and saw massive schools of Mackeral about a half mile long, followed closely by whales feeding on them. I caught a bunch of mackeral and tried live lining them but no luck. Everyone seems to think that the stripers have moved south....which seems odd considering all of the bait around.

On a good note...I did catch a 8lb bluefish on a diving plug....that was fun.
