Hey Macojoe

Hope you filling better...

I came across this video on Youtube:

Been in your neck of the woods I'm curious if you have fished for these tasty sea biscuits?
I have never been lucky enough to find a decent school of keepers down this way, my best so far as been a couple of 17 inchers about a month ago.

We get them all the time! I use cut squid just like I am Fluking. Great eats!!

In Mass the rules are 12" 20 fish a day open all year round.
