Its not too bad considering its really 10 to 14 days past a bad ice year there.. The pictures i have seen and reports I am the water stays high this year i am hoping this keeps the water temps lower this spring.

Anyone see or hear anything that says the people on the boat have to be in the same household or is this rumor?

Rumor, they would have stated that on the page. Thats kind of a big deal.

Thanks for confirming. That would be a nightmare to enforce anyway.

Good thing I just sold my quabbin boat. Oh well...I have my buddies to use.

Man I read all of the different things tags, permits, seasons, regulations, that folks in different states have to go through to go fishing, and then read people from the state I live in whining and crying about how bad we have it and think to myself they don’t have any idea how great we have it! Sounds like y’all have different boats cause of permits or to use on different bodies of water? I know that y’all have many different fishing opportunities but dang seems like a lot to keep track of! Y’all have a great season if you can!
Keep it safe! JDL

The one great thing about New England vs other states out west is public access... You have to put up no trespassing signs for no access in this state there is an expected public use of the land by everyone which is great.
I find Florida Keys is hard just because of all the tropical fish. Knowing the Groupers is a lot of work let along everything else. The regulations are tough and enforced. I have been rolled up on by FFW in their twin 250 hp Center consoles great guys, talk about a dream gig.

Quick update! Your vehicle must have mass plates. You must also wear a mask.

They have started making appointments to reseal boats. Sounds like they are working pretty hard to get them tagged before they open on thursday.
-
The weird thing is they rescheduled my buddies wash but whats the point if you cant launch from out of state?

Im guessing that restriction wont last long after the state reopens.
-
cant decide between 8 or 31 for opening day
-
8 typically has a longer line on opening day. That being said. Alot of guys cut tags, no boats from out of state, and no rentals. I think the lines will move pretty quick.
-
FYI, for those that aren't aware, they Q is renting boats again starting this weekend. For those with boats, it might impact when you want to get there due to lines.
