Saturday April 2. 2016 Slow to start today, with continually changing conditions, but wound up with some cod in the second half. The water had changed since Wednesday, cleaner and probably cooler near the bottom. There were far fewer dogfish and better percent of the cod were caught on bait this time. Mikey had 3 keepers and two shorts on Bait. Rich had two keepers on a slow retrieved, rubber tailed jig --one close to 10lbs. I tried jigging again today but I never had a hit. I was thinking that a slow retrieved bucktail with penny colored gulp might work good on these trips. We didn't try for taug today but that option is always on the table. I saw plenty of bait on my fish-finder on the way back but didn't mark anything that I could say was a striper in it. Tomorrow and Monday are a no-go due to the weather. Tuesday looks okay and Weds looks very nice.
