sunday too much wind

[oddfish]

Tried for stripper on the AM tide. Nothing ! This is the slowest year I have seen since I don't remember when. Went out front of Hampton, bye the discharge. The Cod are still working decent out there on about any rock pile you can find, and the dogs have not shown up in the sub 100' water as of yet. Cod are eating tons of small red crab and some small lobster. I'm tempted to try some green crab out there and see what they do . mackerel and turd pollock most anywhere.

Happy fishing, Oddfish

is the discharge marked on the charts?

[oddfish]

Yes the intake and discharges are marked on all the new maps (probably from the mid 1990's on).
a quick preusal is easy to do at west marine or on line I suspect.
There is a fairly shallow hump just to the South of the middle of the intakes. it comes up to 18' of water. I have always found it to be a decent place for a single cod and frequently little pollock.
