SUMMARY : |
Fished the inshore rockpiles and ledges in and around Farnham Rock on Massachusetts Bay. This
Spring's unusually cold and stormy weather has caused the lowest surface water temperature that I
have ever recorded for the last day in May.
I was joined by my brother Paul today and together we enjoyed a fair pick of market-sized cod.
The wolffish was a bit of a surprise, considering how close to the shore we were fishing.
