We hit them hard as sin to start the day. It was incredible. We fished on the northern part of Stellwagen Bank today, in shallow (100-120') water. We had equal numbers of cod and haddock today (keepers), but again lots of small fish. We fished with light tackle again--having a blast with every fish.

The big thing today was the whales--we had two whales open their mouths eating tons of sand eels a mere 5' from the back of our boat!! And we got it on video!!! We also had whales lounging on the surface next to our boat--we could have jumped on them!!

We passed stripers breaking in Plymouth Harbor this morning-it was exciting even though we weren't fishing for them. We're ready--the fish will be on the surface for some time now---we'll be fishing the flats of Cape Cod Bay for cruising stripers and blues. With the SW winds all week--the sea bass are up in Buzzards Bay now and it will be great.

LAST MINUTE THOUGHTS--INCREDIBLE WEATHER AND WE HAVE OPENINGS THIS WEEK. GIVE US A CALL AT 508-269-1882.

Keep having fun; we only live once.

Bio: I'm Capt. Rich Antonino and I specialize in small private charters in Massachusetts from April-November. We fish for cod/haddock from Green Harbor and Plymouth. We fish Buzzards Bay for sea bass, porgy(scup), fluke, stripers/blues. We love shark fishing and tuna fishing and our boat is perfect for that. It's fast--we cruise at over 30 mph and can hit 40 mph. The boat has a full cabin and more fishing space than most 6-packs! We have a blast.
