1627.0. "Mass. Bass/Blues Advice?" by AIMHI::HUTCHINSON () Tue Jun 18 1991 13:26

    Several of us are planning a day this weekend (June 22/23) - possibly
    at the south end of the Cape Cod Canal.  We'll be in two or three 17'
    Whalers, would like to be casting for bass or bluefish.
    
    Four weeks ago orange Rangers produced many blues.  Any current advice
    on location or hardware?
    
    Thanks for any suggestions.  Fishing only once or twice a year, it is
    difficult to keep up with what's working.

      One spot that's been known to produce Blues and Strippers is right by
    the end of the canal by the Maritime Academy; where the big ships dock.
    You'll see some rip around there. I've used lime green surface lures 
    (pencil type and others) as well as orange and yellow. They seem to
    like a nice hair tail. One other attraction that's proved successful is
    to put a piece of pork rind on a trailing hook. For live bait try eels.
