MJ - only 60lbs . . . . what's up with that????
I could usually get around 80lbs from Mashnee Flats.
How's the price?
I think it's time to go after some COD.

MJ - I would expect the prices to be much higher considering the cost of fuel these days. It's almost not worth it to commercial fluke. The Cod prices are pretty good . . . with your federal groundfish permit you could clean house . . . . I have another good spot for you that's northeast of chatham.

The auction prices are $1.60 to $1.90/lb
