Gloucester Cod and Pollack Report May 1st

I fished with my son Leif for cod and pollack on the TUNA.COM out of Gloucester MA on Sunday.

We fished with a nice group of fisherman who were all members of NJFISHING.COM, Eric F, Eric J, Jon and Howie.
We had our limit of keeper cod and pollack at least two dozen pollack. We also had countless throw-back cod and many sculpin.
All fish were caught on jigs in the 9-14oz range with teasers attached. We drifted over pods of fish on Stellwagen bank. The fish ranged in size from 6-16lbs.
While everyone caught lots of fish, my son Leif seemed to have the hot hand and out-fished me this time, getting more than his limit of cod and nice double header pollack. It was nice to take the trip with my son.I enjoyed spending the time with him and watching him catch all those fish.
