Cape Cod 7/20

[Taxman]

Large gulp, not sure offical color, floressent green grub 6 inch squiggly tail

Peruvian smelt produced well on previous days according to mate as well as whole squid

Did not see any traditional Jersey style bucktailing due to amount of weight

Hi low rigs seemed to be working as well

they gaff fluke so not having to much "stuff" in the way is a good thing

Give me a call and I will give you the scoop of what I have found worked well

Finally got out there Monday, my trip was canceled a couple of weeks ago. Boat didn't get back to the dock until 6:15. Outstanding captain & crew. I didn't bring any special tackle or bait, just lots of rods & sinkers. Started the day with 12 oz but things calmed down & 6 oz worked for a few hours. I ended up with a 4 lb sea bass & 9 keeper fluke, 7 over 20", the largest about 5 or 6 lbs. 2 keepers were Ma legal, 17 1/2". Next year I'll be better prepared to get a 10 lber. Every fluke I caught was on the boat's strips of squid on various rigs including bucktails & Kil-R-Rigs. Sea bass was on a fresh water Gulp I've been experimenting with this year. The guy next to me had 8 keepers, all on Gulp. The pool winner (9lbs) was caught on a snapper, along with his 7 & 8 lber, all within 1/2 hour. He didn't catch much after using his last snapper. Thanks to those that responded to my earlier post.

Tuesday, I fished the Gail Frances in RI & had 5 keepers including a 7 & 8 lber. Bucktails worked around the boat with the slow drift near Block Island. Last year, I couldn't hold bottom with 16oz.

Did you have all the wrapped rods including a pink (fuchsia) one

[MohawkJD]

Yes, but it's violet & lavender with just a touch of fuchsia.
