Plymouth Bay - Plymouth, MA
Another season usually coincides with another new ride for Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters, and this year is no exception. The new Parker buddy cabin he’s taking charters on this year should excel in seaworthiness and comfort, yet still put a lot of fish in the boat. What’s especially interesting this year is the experimental live bait well, he’s adapting to the new boat. This thing is borne from catfish competitions where the goal is to keep the fish alive until they can be released to swim again after the weigh-in. In addition to a well-oxygenated system, the new livewell has compartments to store ice to keep the baits cool and alive. The goal of the new livewell is to keep the notoriously fragile sea herring alive longer. These bait fish are arguably the best bait there is for both bluefin and bass, but are difficult to keep upright. If this innovative livewell works as expected, the catching aboard the skipper’s boat will improve exponentially. While the Legit Fish crew has not been fishing just yet, the captain’s been hearing of stripers on the move off area beaches such as Hummock and Rexhame. "on the water"
