4/30 Getting Better

By tomconley

Capt. Josh reports a fair to good day of fishing aboard the Yankee Clipper today. There was a wide discrepancy in angler success around the boat, with some guys doing quite well and others having only a couple, but overall everyone had at least some fish in the bag by day’s end.

The cod bite was good on the drift, with a pile of nice fish in the 10-18-pound range as well as a 22-pound steaker caught by Dave Sullivan that won the pool. Like yesterday, cod constituted the majority of the keeper fish on board, although there were a fair amount of haddock caught today as well. Sounds like between today and yesterday, the bite’s starting to pick up again! And there are some better-sized fish in the mix too. Here’s hoping that trend continues
