Rick Paone commented on John Carroll's group North of Boston"Ryan I think the cold weather and all the rain has pushed the bait along with the big guys out to deeper water. Hopefully some warmer weather is in the near future"

- Hello Rick. I lived in the Boston, area about 30 years ago. Back then the harbor was a cesspool. However after they cleaned up the waters. The big fish started to return. I would drive down from N.H. and fish with some friends who still live in the area. Caught a pile of 30 to 40 pound stripers back then. I now live in the Outer Banks of N.C. The bass have come back here big time now. Along with all the other species, it's still a great place to fish. If you ever would like to come down. I would be happy to go fishing with you.
