I'm heading out in the morning for my second time ever. I went out 1.5 weeks ago and we got two small keepers (the only flounders), along with a ton of skates and crabs on the deer island flats.
Nice break in the weather predicted for tomorrow. I'm going to try my luck with a bag of clams for chum and maybe more drifting than last time...the Great Santini told me its a good way to avoid skates which bent up all my hooks. Also going to put some clam on the hook instead of just worms.
I found when I did drift that it was hard to discern bites from the weight dragging on the bottom. Any thoughts on this?
Weekend looks like a good time for tog down in buzzards bay so I'm looking forward to that!
Cheers and tight lines y'all.
