STELLWAGEN BANK,MA- Cod Fishing 2/9/01
An open weather window on Thursday and Friday allowed
B-Fast’s DECISIVE to guide two groups to Stellwagen’s
shoal-water. John Shwiner’s group of Edison,NJ made a
second trip to the bank in a week, returning after a banner
trip on February 1. The Northwest wind proved to be a bit
more than forcasted, making fishing difficult in the morning.
By late morning, Capt. Scott got the group into the fish.
Once again, medium cod 8-12 pound were the rule with
about 10 pollock to 15 pounds. On Friday, 2/9, Louie
Pedone’s charter from Glen Cove,LI,NY found calm seas
but few fish on middle bank. The Bank’s north end held
the bait and fish allowing Louie’s group using jigs to fill
the boxes with cod between 6 and 12 pounds. Gale winds
have warranted cancellation of charters on Saturday and
possibly Sunday. Stop by and meet the Captains at the
Dodge Truck’s Hunting & Fishing Show in Hartford,CT,
February 15-18.
