I haven't seen any yet in the canal. Going down a couple of times this weekend on the high slack tide. I have seen herring so the bass should be here.

In another post, I missed by a day: Spent 2 hours today in the fog and rain of Buzzards Bay in the midst of a feeding frenzy of mostly schoolies but did manage to put a 30 incher (10 lbs) in the box for diner.

When we docked we were immediately checked by MA Environmental Police and the fishing survey takers. We even forgot to take pictures.
