Ground Sound

[backman]

I have a boat in the water earlier than ever. I have heard rumors of Vineyard Sound codfish in days of yore. I have caught a pollack in the sound in May in years past.

Does anyone have facts about Vineyard Sound winter groundfish?

Let me know if you need company for a test, I've never wet a line in March, would be awesome...

looks like sunday at the moment; "deep" drop into the 100' hole off Lamberts and probe the Port HUnter and Kershaw?

[Reel Pursuit]

Put me on that short list too.

good luck.

I dropped a small jig with 3" grub teasers on a bunch of spots in RI Sound (while on stations with a r/v) including Browns etc.. ~2 weeks ago

Not much going on, few marks, although I did mark some bait inshore of Browns Ledge. I did count 15-20 boats in a small area south of Block on radar...

they have been pounding the bottom off block. south and to the east grounds. i know they were doing really well then it slowed a bit but you could still pick away.

larry why not run up nauset if its nice out?? or backside of MV is known to hold some fish

[backman]

The East Grounds are 37 nmiles; Nauset is 45. A long way in March for groundfish. It will take a perfect day in March for me to make that run..

makes sense. best of luck whatever you decide.
