Mark Rowell - Legit Fish Sportfishing

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters briefly thought that his sonar must be on the fritz: there just seemed to be too many marks on the screen. It took but one drop of a butterfly jig off Race Point to prove that the marks were all real and that they belonged to stripers and bluefish. Closer to home, the captain is finding 25” of water off Scituate is the striper sweet spot regardless of the stage of the tide. Mackerel have moved – or, more accurately, been pushed – into Scituate Harbor. Bluefish have finally become a factor with X-Raps and mackerel catching them in 35’ of water. Pete from Belsan’s Bait and Tackle in Scituate said that it is shades of late last August out there as Egypt Beach is loaded with striped bass. Just maybe best of all is that the bass are big and not the least bit fussy, with all manner of baits and lures working.  Football tuna, in the 40” range, have made a showing within three miles of the coastline. The small bluefin can be found pummeling the same pogy schools which are attracting the striped bass and bluefish. "on the water"

Action-packed day from the get-go!

Cape Cod Stripers: Multi-Technique Success with Captain Mark

schools of striped bass 

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters said that some of the substantial schools of striped bass off Race Point appear to have spun off and moved deeper into Cape Cod Bay. Some impressive reports have been trickling in regarding solid striper action in such spots as Fishing Ledge, Billingsgate Shoals and outside of Sesuit Harbor. Mackerel remain the weapon of choice, with bite-sized tinkers tending to be farther out than their larger kin inshore. Pogies, which were offshore, have largely blown in and are swimming off area beaches and in harbors such as Scituate Harbor. Charlie has made his presence known and is keeping shop owners busy re-spooling line on reels which were not intended to handle the heat of a tuna.  Haddock had been pulling a no-show, but there are some signs that this has changed. A recent charter of Captain Mark’s was interested in a few fillets for the cooler, with the mission being accomplished on top of ledge from 124-135’ of water. The skipper emphasized the need to be on top of that ledge as cod rule the edges. Anglers trolling X Raps and mackerel off Cohasset and Hull have been picking up stripers and the occasional blue. "on the water"

wind direction

There are some signs that the shift in wind direction to a more easterly direction has blown in cooler temperatures and a hotter bite off the South Shore. Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters said that while Race Point was still productive, the area off Scituate has picked up a lot. In addition to more favorable water temperatures the ultimate big bass bait – bunker – have moved in. Areas off beaches are holding schools of bunker and they are even present in Scituate Harbor. On the water"

Striped bass caught while fishing on boat in Scituate MA waters

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish didn’t have to tap into AIS to find what might be the biggest bass biomass in the Bay State — he just had to figure out where the bait was. Squid, sand eels and mackerel, which are awash at Race Point, are holding a huge aggregate of striped bass. A few blues are tearing up tackle and reports of Charlie are beginning to trickle in. This year the craze seems to be centered around Mojo Rigs and Umbrella Rigs of all sorts. Of course, trolling or dropping mackerel amidst the marked fish is a solid idea, too. Others are doing just fine with slow-pitch jigs as well as the tried-and-true diamond jig. "on the water"

Striped bass catch on fishing boat in Scituate MA waters

bass biomass today

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters found feeding stripers in 120’ of water off Plymouth, but all signs have pointed to them moving in off Hummock Beach in 30’ of water. The fish can be fussy as they focus on sliversides. The captain is prepared, however, as he’s topping the livewell with mackerel, including tinkers. The macks seem to associate with an omnipresent green slick that snakes along the surface water about 3 miles out. There are plenty of stripers in Scituate Harbor, with the channel holding fish at low tide, while they are less concentrated at high tide and a tougher find.    

feeding stripers

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters echoed what others are saying, namely that slot stripers are not hard to find. Scituate Harbor is holding them, as are beaches such as Duxbury Beach, Priscilla Beach, Burkes Beach, and Rexhame Beach. Some are report that after the long haul, the fish are feeding voraciously and prone to hit a variety of plugs and soft plastics. Captain Rowell has a hunch that the haddock are a lot closer than Jeffrey’s Ledge, making them much for accesible for South Shore anglers. He’s hedging his bets that haddock should move well into Cape Cod Bay thanks to a spike in lobster boat activity, along with their inadvertent chumming as they set and pull their traps. Over the weekend, he’s hoping to have a bead on them as they could be near Stone Ledge or the SW Corner of Stellwagen."on the water"

stripers

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"

Aride

Quality cod such as this 34” as well as hot haddock fishing have par for the course for Legit Fish. Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters is finding cod up to 34” and limits of haddock on most trips. That is arguably much better fishing than others are experiencing among more northern offshore structure, such as Jeffrey’s Ledge and Tillies. The key, according to the captain, is to find rocks/wrecks just to the side of soft bottom. Draggers tend to avoid the irregular bottom, which wreaks havoc on their gear, and instead pound muddy/gravely bottom. Clams, as well as pink cod flies/teasers, are doing the job. Ancillary wow moments continue aboard Legit Fish with a noteworthy one happening while the crew was trying to put a patron onto a blue shark. While setting out a chum slick, and as the blue sharks began to get close to the boat, an unforeseen mako exploded out of nowhere and slammed the bait. The takedown was ferocious and furious, but unfortunately, the fight short lived. Without a doubt, that angler will be booking another trip soon. "on the water"

Atlantic Cod

Non-stop bites all day long! Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Sportfishing here, putting patrons onto some wicked good action this fall morning. Brian and their crew joined us for an early morning departure out of Scituate, heading to Massachusetts Bay under clear conditions throughout the day. The water around Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary was slicked out perfect for our Private 4-Hour Stone Ledge Ground Fish adventure with Legit Fish Sportfishing.

With our gear rigged and ready, we worked the productive waters using a combination of trolling, bottom fishing, and jigging techniques to target the Atlantic Cod that call these waters home. Massachusetts Bay continues to be one of the Cape's most reliable spots for bottom fishing; the structure around Stone Ledge holds baitfish, and where there's bait, the cod are cooperating. Lines tight all morning as we dispatched multiple Atlantic Cod boatside. No suh, when the conditions line up like this and the fish are feeding, it makes for one memorable trip on the water.

Scituate Atlantic Cod Action - Stone Ledge Bottom Fishing Trip

The blitzkrieg of blues inshore has made finding mackerel a dicey proposition. Three to four miles out, the macks are common, but they are avoiding what would surely be an inshore massacre. The stripers are often hit or miss, depending on which bait they are feeding on. When sand eels are on the menu, and unless you’re offering matches the forage, you may find more frustration than fun. When pushing herring, pogies, or mackerel, the bass are usually less fussy. Hummock and Rexhame Beach have been two of the best bets, with even shore anglers getting into it. "On The Water"

 blues inshore 

The prospects have to be promising for anglers to leave a harbor full of willing stripers, but on a few fronts, that’s just what’s happening. While a bit torn, Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters out of Scituate has been steering clear of an easy pick of bass and instead opting for a cooler replete with cod and their cousins. He and his crew are finding plenty of cod, haddock, cusk, and ling between the middle bank of Stellwagen through Stone Ledge. Cod can be caught among rocky bottom in water less than 100’, while a more gravelly substrate and deeper stuff – 185-230’ – is more likely to hold the haddock. More good news is that the ratio of size is good, with very few shorts in the mix. When checked, the haddock are stuffed with shrimp, which makes pink cod flies and soft plastics effective. "On The Water"

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters continues to mix it up for charters by finding a quick slot bite at the mouth of the North River, followed by cows farther out. The river fish continue to feed on sand eels and herring fry, while the bigger fish are just outside of Scituate Harbor, with some fish approaching 50 pounds! Bluefish continue to be more of a factor with some desired less for their sporting attributes and more for a tuna entree. In fact, a chum of the captain caught a 118” behemoth recently in Cape Cod Bay on a bluefish. The haddock fishing from the bank through Stone Ledge continues to be outstanding, with many keepers among the catch."on the water"

Bass

South Shore and South Coast Fishing Report I could have almost wrapped up the South Shore with the sweeping report by Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters. The striped bass fishing not far from his Scituate slip has been fantastic in a number of fronts. Perhaps best of all is that there are many degrees to tight lines, so anglers can spread out. Sand eels and small herring are holding schoolies and slots throughout the North River – check. Mackerel and bite-sized pogies are the fuel for larger linesiders a short distance from the shoreline – another check. Ledges of all sorts are holding molting lobsters, and the stripers are capitalizing on their vulnerability. Green mackerel X Raps, bigger the better, burned around ledges in 55-70’ of water are getting mugged by 50” class bass – that is, unless a certain faster, toothy interloper intercepts the plug first.  Legit Fish striper Legit Fish is putting patrons onto big South Shore stripers. As is typical of the peak of the summer, haddock numbers are surging from the bank through Stone Ledge, with keepers far outnumbering shorts. Tuna are more of a factor throughout Cape Cod Bay, with the size skewed towards giants. Overall, the action has been so furious that along with the remedial pre-launch technique and safety talk, Captain Rowell gives his charters, he’s asking them, “Are there any health issues I should be aware of before we start?”  "on The Water"

Bass Bass and more Bass

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters told me that stripers are coming through the South Shore in three different waves. There are the beach runners, which are feeding on sand eels. Then there are the ledge-loving linesiders, which are chock full of Jonah crabs. The latter might be a thing because the crabs have shed their shells! As to specifics, Captain Rowell pointed out Collamore Ledge. And then there’s the deepwater fish, which are shadowing schools of pogies and prone to taking down a tuna-grade mackerel. Above all, there’s fish aplenty with the bite spread around, making mobbing other boats unnecessary. As for tuna, the skipper is spotting everything from 89” fish to footballs busting bait from Stellwagen through Cape Cod Bay. "On The Water"

Stripers

As befitting “shark week”, Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters has been pestered by “jaws” while targeting tuna. Porbeagles have been taking down the baits, but thanks to circle hooks are released quickly and without fanfare. There are football tuna within 2 1/2 miles of the shoreline, but typically are leery as they usually are close to the coast. Miles from shore, there are big schools of bite-sized pogies that whales are taking advantage of. Should the forage push into shore, the bass bite should get explosive. Scads of sand eels are holding slot and up striped bass in the North River with the incoming tide bringing the bait and bass upstream while the outgoing tide flushes everything towards the mouth of the river.

Action-packed day from the get-go! I had the pleasure of taking Antonino out for a half-day trip with Legit Fish Sportfishing in Scituate, MA this summer. We set off in the early afternoon under clear skies, perfect conditions for our Stripers &amp; Blues adventure. The water was calling our names as we left the dock, ready to see what the Atlantic had in store for us. Legit Fish Sportfishing always aims to provide the best experience, and this trip was no exception.
Once the stage was set, we got down to business. I decided to mix things up and give Antonino a taste of different fishing techniques. We started with some surf casting along the coastline, feeling the power of the waves as we worked our lures. Then we switched gears to bottom fishing, dropping our lines to see what might be lurking in the depths. As the afternoon progressed, we even did some trolling, covering more water in search of active fish. While we didn't land any keepers this time around, the variety of methods kept us engaged and gave Antonino a well-rounded fishing experience. We wrapped up the trip with smiles all around, enjoying the time on the water and the skills practiced.
Fishing isn't always about the catch, and days like this remind us why we love being out on the water. The clear conditions gave us fantastic views of the Scituate coastline, and the calm seas made for a comfortable ride. Antonino got to practice different casting techniques and learn about reading the water, skills that will serve well on future trips. We didn't stick a trophy on this run, but every cast and minute on the water was worth it. The afternoon flew by as we enjoyed the ocean breeze and the thrill of anticipation with each new spot we tried.

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters is putting patrons onto an interesting mix of species also as both haddock and stripers have been cooperating for the crew. Stone Ledge continues to be great for gadoids, while the best bass fishing vacillates between Minot Ledge and the mouth of the North River, with the latter fishing best as cooler water is ushered in on the flood. Mackerel remain an easy find and are the bait of choice for the bass. As for tuna, the best bluefin fishing remains east of Stellwagen, but with the volume of bait inshore and steadily rising water temperatures, Block Island bluefin are expected to move up soon. Pete from Belsan’s Bait and Tackle in Scituate described the mackerel population as “can’t miss!” The unusually large population of sand eels at the Spit is holding slots. For larger fish, trolling X-Raps east of Sunken Ledge has been effective. Blues remain a no-show. "on the water"

Tuna on the run

Action-packed day from the get-go! We set out from Scituate, Plymouth County on a beautiful summer morning for some serious fishing action with Legit Fish Sportfishing. Julie and their crew of four joined me for our 3/4 Day Trip – Striper (Weekdays) adventure on Massachusetts Bay. The weather was cooperating nicely with partly cloudy skies as we left the dock at first light. Perfect conditions for what we had planned.
With our gear rigged and ready, we hit the water eager to see what Massachusetts Bay had in store for us. We employed a variety of techniques throughout the day, including surf casting, bottom fishing, and trolling. Each method gave us a different angle on the diverse marine life in these waters. While we were targeting stripers, the bay had other plans for us. We ended up hooking into a bunch o Haddock,. Not the trophy striper we were after, but a fun catch nonetheless that kept things interesting. The partly cloudy skies provided ideal conditions, allowing us to work different areas of the bay without the harsh glare you sometimes get on bright, sunny days.
We wrapped up our Legit Fish Sportfishing adventure with smiles all around, having enjoyed a full day on the water. While the big stripers eluded us this time, the experience of being out on Massachusetts Bay, trying different techniques, and landing those Haddock provided a great day on the water and some awesome table fare for our guests.

Slot to bigger bass, gator blues, and occasionally Charlie have been pushing sand eels and mackerel to the surface, making for excellent top water action. Of course, with all the mackerel around, some are just topping off the livewell and trolling up tight lines. "on the water"

What a great day on the water, couldn't ask for more action! I took Rich out for a private Stripers and Blues Fishing Trip with Legit Fish Sportfishing, and we had a blast. We met up at the Bulman Marine at The Waterfront Club in Scituate, Plymouth County, on a partly cloudy September morning around 6:00 am.

Once the stage was set, we got to work targeting the Striped Bass using a variety of techniques like bottom fishing, live-lining, and jigging. The conditions were perfect, and the fish were really active. We managed to land a nice 33-inch Striped Bass, which was the highlight of the trip. It put up a great fight and was a real trophy.

Scituate Stripers and Blues Deliver Exciting Angling Action

"Scituate Stripers & Blues Deliver Epic Catch with Legit Fish"

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters and crew were in the midst of jigging up mackerel just inside state waters when they saw the fins. A school of stripers up to 51” was also there looking for a mack snack. As is often the case when in open water, the fish were fussy, but the captain came stealthily prepared with 20-pound fluorocarbon leaders at the ready. That’s pretty flimsy stuff for fish of that size, but the captain said that the new bow-to-stern Daiwa gear he’s packing was more than up to the task. "on the Water"

Today was a great day out on the water with Sylvain on our Private Stripers and Blues Fishing Trip at Scituate, MA. June is a prime time for inshore fishing in these parts, with striped bass and bluefish becoming more active as the waters warm up. The weather was partly cloudy throughout the day, but the conditions were otherwise excellent - the water was in great shape, and there was a nice breeze to keep things comfortable.

We had a full arsenal of techniques at the ready, gearing up with a mix of deep-sea, jigging, trolling, bait-casting, heavy tackle, kite fishing, light tackle, and drift fishing setups. Sylvain was eager to get after it, and we wasted no time getting the lines in the water. The early bite was a bit slow, but we kept working different areas and presentations until we started to find some fish. It wasn't long before we started getting into some nice stripers and blues, with the fish hitting our baits and lures with authority.

The action kept us busy, but we still had plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and camaraderie out on the water. Between the steady catches, we'd swap fishing stories, talk strategy, and take in the sights of the Scituate coastline. It's those little moments that make a day on the water so special - not just the number of fish, but the overall experience of being out on the water with good company.

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters told me that once the seas settled down and rivers flushed out the “Yoohoo” colored water stripers returned to the North River. Mackerel remain hit-or-miss among inshore ledges, but when found are the perfect snack for river bass. Drifting on an outgoing tide by the Fourth Cliff has been especially good. The skipper’s gut tells him that haddock should be moving along the northeast rim of Stellwagen and just maybe onto the Middle Bank. On Sunday, he intends to find out. "On the Water"

Bass moving in.

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters has been putting most of his effort into the North River as slots pound alewives with focal points where the main river meets up with the herring river tributaries. The skipper did say that the crew is spotting far larger specimens blasting the herring which are reluctant to fall for something fake. "on the Water"

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters corroborated the news that cows are on the move along the SW corner of Stellwagen Bank. What just might be pausing their movements is the swarms of tinker mackerel which can be found throughout the bank. Anglers having luck with tuna are passing on the tiny bait in favor of whiting. Sharp-eyed tuna no doubt can spot a hooked tinker but are less likely to notice a hook buried in the bigger bait. That philosophy paid off for the crew, which on Middlebank brought a beast of a bluefin boatside the other day. There are plenty of haddock out there but as for cod, ledge, rocks, wrecks within 5 miles of the shoreline are a better bet. You can put those tinker mackerel to good use in the North River for stripers running between 24-40”! The key is moving water with diminishing returns during slack. I also received a tip from Bill Hurley that cookie cutter schoolies could not resist the Hurley stick bait in the South River on Thursday with the bite lasting until mid-day. "on the water"

Cows are on the move 

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters has been shaking things up beyond the South Shore while taking charters out to fish for false albacore and Spanish mackerel in the Craigsvillle Beach area in Nantucket Sound. There have been no shortage of bass and blues occupying cleanup duty as those southern speedsters leave a wake of injured/dead bay anchovies in their wake. Locally the skippers pick is the North River where the bait buffet of baby bunker, herring fry and tinker mackerel are keeping stripers in check. Squid are swarming throughout Stellwagen with the SW corner chock full of Charlie in the 60” category. " on the water"

“Hard bottom” within 3 miles of much of the South Shore is holding cod according to Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters. The conundrum is that the shallower structure is more likely to give up smaller rock cod while “white bellies” up to 35” are falling for clams between 2 1/2-5 miles once Scituate Harbor is cleared. Blues and bass have been busting peanut bunker all across the South Shore from Plymouth to Peggotty Beach. The North River has been noteworthy as well as has the Cliffs. The acquisition of mackerel is not a problem as they can be found among inshore eddies and upwellings in as little as 40’. Some major bluefin can be found in the SW Corner of Stellwagen Bank but you can expect company because the word is out. You’re not likely to find Captain Rowell among the fleet as he has his sites on Charlie in the same Cape Cod Bay areas he’s finding cod!

Hard bottom = COD!

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters out of Scituate said that sharks have been taking a liking to his boat! The other day he had a monster blue shark that kept bumping his engines, worrying the captain that it might take a chomp out of them. While floating a mackerel for Charlie, a thresher shark kept thumping the balloons with its massive tail. There’s good reason to deal with the occasional toothy nuisance however as “jumpers” that look to be grander giants have been observed chasing halfbeaks. Not all has been sideshows as haddock continue to cooperate halfway between port in Scituate Harbor and Stellwagen Bank. It’s tempting for the captain to just stay in port with all the striper-on-peanut bunker action in the harbor. While most would think that the five Bs – bass, blues, bonito, black sea bass, and blackfish – would be enough to satisfy, Captain Jason Colby keeps trying to give his crew a little more. Soon that will include the cornucopia of critters which call Coxes Ledge home – especially cod! In addition to the very real prospects of finding cod, it’s also nice to know that as of September 1st in the Southern New England area anglers will be able to keep up to 5 cod at a minimum of 23”. Get your arsenal of jigs ready! "on the water" "on the water"

sharks and more sharks

I’ve heard many an adjective used to describe tuna but never until now the word – rude! That was just the description used by Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters to portray pelagics which have been engulfing haddock at boat side. When those tanks have not dispatched his catch, the catching has been quite good with 10 fish per person outings common. The bite remains impressive halfway between Scituate Harbor and Stellwagen. File this one away for the open season of September 1st- white-bellied cod are gathering around rocks and wrecks within 3 miles of the shoreline. Blitzes in the Three Bays, Scituate Harbor and numerous other locations have become a reality as peanut bunker have arrived. Three-inch white/pearl paddletials will catch what can be fussy feeds for those not matching the hatch. "on the water"

Rude tuna

It’s been looking like a boat show over much of the South Shore with sizable schools of super-sized striped bass pounding pogies. Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters sent me a video of a scene just beyond his backdoor that looked like a mooring field as boat after boat jockeyed for position over pogy schools. The mob of menhaden as well as their pursuers have been moving back and forth from Plymouth through Scituate with no rhyme or reason as to where they will appear next. I guess something can be said for an even playing field. Manomet Point has been mentioned as one of the more consistent spots with honorable mention going to White Cliff. The bass on the bunker are beasts with most begin caught on what drew the predators in – pogies. While interesting, the captain has been steering clear of the flotilla and taking a short sprint out to Stone Ledge where he’s been limiting out on haddock in record time. The fish are there for small shrimp and sand eels making 3” pink/white Gulp lethal. While in the can’t-touch-this-status until September, cod on higher sections of the ledges are numerous and impressive. The sweet spot for the haddock is 200’, while the cod are shallower in about 185’. "On The Water"

Sizable schools of super-sized striped bass 

While Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters did not have a halibut make mince meat out of any groundffish this week, he did encounter a different sort of toothy fish in deep water. Big blues, which have largely been absent from Massbay so far, were falling for mackerel intended for a certain extra large flatfish. According to Mark those blues were real gators and found by Stone Ledge. Maybe this could be the first wave of more of a bluefish presence across our coast. The haddock bite has been good from Stellwagen Bank through Cape Cod Bay with the sweet spot 200’ of water. "on the water"

Real Gators

Anyone who knows Captain Mark Rowell knows that the Legit Fish Charters skipper is a practitioner of the calm, cool, collective mindset. That resolve was sorely tested on Sunday when he put a charter in position to land the fish of a lifetime – a monster Atlantic halibut! Mark is no stranger to landing the world’s largest flatfish, so when he pegs the weight at 200 pounds that estimate is – legit! The venue was Stone Ledge, the quarry was haddock but the captain and the crew were ready for the ever-present prospects of hooking into something far larger. In between a good pick of haddock and off-season market cod, one of the anglers came up with a cod and en eviscerated whiting on one of the rigs. While some might blame a shark for the damage done to the whiting, Mark immediately recognized the signature chomp of a halibut. His hunch was confirmed by live imaging on his Lawrence electronics which had the captain and first mate struggling to catch their breath.  broken rod This broken rod and tattered braid was all that was left from a duel with a monster halibut aboard Legit Fish. The captain immediately dropped the half a whiting towards the bottom when the rod bent and shook from the weight of what he knew was the halibut. His Contender is equipped with conventional gear suited for such warfare and while it took a while, the captain and mate were well on their way towards landing that halibut when the rod was passed among the patrons on board. The barn door sized halibut was but a few feet away with Mark at the ready with a harpoon when one of the crew grabbed the top of the rod causing it to break. The broken blank was bad enough, but the resulting fraying of the 80 pound braid as they still tried to land the fish proved lethal. The reaction of most captains after losing such a fish would have been loud enough to jam nearby GPS units but Mark gave a typical “meh, we’ll get ‘em next time” shrug. That next time may be soon enough because Mark has on good authority that that fish was not alone! Just maybe best of all, those beasts are within 7 miles of the shoreline! "on the water"

 Signature chomp of a halibut

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters told me he’s recently found pogies just outside of Scituate Harbor along with bass big enough to dispatch them. Those intent on chasing Charlie should bet on the bank between the NW corner out to the middle of Stellwagen. You’ll also find haddock there as well as intermittently on Stone Ledge. For a shot at a halibut consider a chunk or whole mackerel, whiting or sea herring along the northern edge of the shipping lanes. "on the water"

Bass big enough to dispatch

We had a fantastic time fishing in Boston! Everyone on the trip had a blast and came away with new knowledge and skills. Don't miss out—book your Boston fishing charter today for an unforgettable experience!

Boston Fishing Report 

Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters told me he’s having no trouble finding them in CCB now. What he’s also spotting under the schools is huge marks. When asked if those might have been big bass beginning to migrate he said “those fish are not pushing the bait upward, so what do you think they are?”. The point being that bass have to move the bait towards the surface to dispatch them while tuna simply snap them up with ease! Fishery regulators have freed up additional quota for giants on Sunday, so timing for those big “marks” in Cape Cod Bay may be good. Don’t delay if you want a brute of a bluefin; doubtless that quota won’t be open for long. "On The Water"

 Those big “marks”

For a better bead on where cod are congregating I consulted Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters who told me that the western edge of Stone Ledge in about 204’ has been the sweet spot. If while pounding lead or jigs on the bottom, the unmistakable “suction” sensation of mud is being transmitted through your line than you’re in haddock territory, if you’re jig is coming up with chips/divots marring it’s finish than more likely you’re going to find cod. The fish have been full of shrimp making pink teasers hot! As for stripers, not surprisingly they are on the move with previously quiet estuaries/rivers reloaded with life. "On The Water"

Western Edge 

Captain Mark of Legit Fish Charters said that bluefish have pushed mackerel inshore and up against ledge with tuna in tow! “Sea monsters” up to 110” have been following both species with some of those brutes as close as 4 miles out! While targeting tuna with RonZs, the Legit Fish crew got a surprise in cod up to 30 pounds! Close to rockpiles/ledge you’re likely to find rock cod, while white-bellies are more likely to be found in 80-90’ in open water. Along with haddock, “fun-sized” 2 – 3 pound pollock have been prevalent. The skipper usually cruises into port with mackerel in the livewell to treat patrons to some fast paced striper action right in Scituate Harbor! As Mark put it, the harbor is so stacked with stripers, you could “walk on them!”. "On The Water"

 “Sea monsters”

Of course something can be said for the Gulf of Maine, especially if you’re Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters. Bass and blues aren’t the only species packing on the protein right now; from the Southwest Corner of Stellwagen all the way to Scantum tuna are on a tear. Slack tide at the edge of drop-offs with a bluefish on the line is the trick according to Captain Rowell. Some of these fish are pushing bait on the surface as close as five miles out from Scituate Harbor and when breaching the surface look like “school buses.” As for cod, the skipper has been catching 10-15 pound “white bellies” in 90-114’ of water. The edges of different structure, especially where hard bottom abuts mud, is where you’ll find more forage as well as opportunistic feeders such as cod. Small green teasers are a good option to match the ubiquitous spike mackerel. Bunker in both big and small versions can be found from Plymouth to Point Allerton and are holding both bass and blues. You’ll have to search for mackerel but once found will not last long among rocky outcroppings of the South Shore. "On the water"

Opportunistic feeders

According to Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters, your keeper cod awaits you on the South Shore among most any interesting bottom structure in 75’ of water. On a recent haddock trip to Stone Ledge the crew had to cull through about 100 cod to catch a half dozen haddock! The patrons also put the pedal to an impressive porbeagle which was released after giving an upper state New York bunch an experience they never get up there. Stripers from schoolie to beyond slot are chasing peanuts in the Three Bays, Green Harbor, Scituate Harbor and among embayments all along the South Shore.

"on The Water" 

keeper cod awaits

What fishers do care about in deep water is cod! Beginning September 1st and lasting until October 31st, anglers will be able to keep one cod per person at a minimum of 22” in the GOM and state waters. Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters has had personal experience with this as he has had to cull through market-size cod to catch haddock. The Stone Ledge area in 205’ of water is holding both species as well as slab Arcadian Redfish of 2-3 pounds! South Shore harbors such as Scituate are chock full of peanut bunker and silversides which is keeping stripers in check. "On the Water"

 Cull through market-size cod

There’s more of a pogy presence now on the South Shore. Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters has been experiencing the smaller version in Scituate Harbor as well as Cohasset with adults hanging around the North River. Blues are less of a factor which may be the reason that mackerel acquisition is a bit easier. Those macks tossed around structure from The Gurnet through High Pine Ledge to Cowen Rocks as well as off Gunrock Beach are resulting in a reliable slot-to-larger bass bite. With an influx of peanut bunker, blitzes are getting more common which bodes well for a significant fall run.  Haddock as well as double-digit cod can be found by the Double LLs on Stellwagen. Having a feel as to bottom composition matters as cod are more likely to frequent rocky, irregular bottom while mud is good for haddock. Just maybe best of all is the lack of dogfish, making clams and other types of bait a viable option. For consistent blues, Provincetown is where it’s at, with everything from snappers to gators figuring in the mix.

Bottom Composition 

When I spoke to Captain Mark Rowell of Legit Fish Charters last week, he told me that his goal for this week was to land a halibut, and boy did he come close to pulling it off. In 202’ of “mud” inside the shipping lanes of Cape Cod Bay while fishing a whiting close to the bottom the crew came tight to a halibut. These guys were prepared with tuna-grade gear loaded with 80 pound braid and a top shot of 100 pound fluorocarbon leader. They had the beast on for 45 minutes when the braid gave out! Far from an aberration, a nearby cohort of the captain landed – 3 halibut! Suffice to say the skipper knows where these things are; the timing of a trip for this fish-of-a-lifetime may not ever be better! While hoping for halibut, tuna were active in the same spot as were bigger-than-average whiting. Stone Ledge is holding some haddock, in fact I’m hearing of an overall increase in haddock harvests throughout the GOM as well. "on the water"
