The cover is off

Too early, water temp is barely 40 deg. You have 6-8 weeks yet. What is the rush?
Most people here seem to go in too early and out too early. Lots of guys hanging it up in early sept. Nov is still pretty good fishing. April sucks and most of May is pretty week. Looking at the temps off boston your still in the 30's. 42 here on a good day. I like to see at least the temp start with at least a 5 before I get really motovated.

April-May, It's nice to fish for cod before dogs show up. I don't look for bass till mid May. At the tail end I fish into Dec in my boat for whatever is around, bass ,blues, tuna, tog.

pulled the cover last week, and spent this week fixing all the little do-dads that broke during last season that I never got around to.... also re-wired/re-greased the trailer and added thsoe LED lights (tired of fixing the damned lights all the time). got the bottom paint done too.

I'm so-o-o ready
