justintrask Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 are there any charters out of NH, MA, RI, or CT that go out in December? Have the next two weeks off and would like to go out on a party boat or charter boat if I can afford it. Anyone know of any? just a shadow of what once was.

foxfai Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Why spend the money on a boat when you can catch them from shore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdowning Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Yankee Fleet in Gloucester too, but I think this coming weekend is their last cod trip of the season. -bd Pfantum Pfishah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonFrum Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Why spend the money on a boat when you can catch them from shore? There are no cod along the shore. There are no fish in the Canal. In fact, there is no Canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchman Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 I would head south of cape cod. North of the cape some areas are closed and the rest have 2 fish/per limit (75lb max per boat) limit so the boats up there aren't generally targeting them. However, there was a hot pollack bite goin on and you might be able to get on them if you go up there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but North of the cape you can get haddock and pollock, much better than cod and not as restricted! DITCH TROLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codfish Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 still nothing like a 50lb cod over the rail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redpaulhus Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Hey Justin, I just got an email from Yankee Fleet titled "last trip of 2010": It's that time of year, when the opportunities for a good day at sea will be diminishing. The forecast for this Saturday looks terrific! As of this moment, 9:46 am on 12/16, the marine forecast is calling for a calm 2 to 3 ft sea, with a nice westerly breeze of 10 kts. The Pollock are biting. The Pollock started their fall run a bit late, but we had some awesome trips this late Fall with large and fairly plentiful catches of the nice fighting Pollock. on an unrelated note -- my father-in-law changed where he's keeping his boat, we'll be in the Taunton River this year (Dighton) -- as soon as I learn the area and find the stripers I'll let you know, and we can try to schedule a trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
