Bite Me bait Co's   Clam King

Often proving smarter than most locked doors, "Ebb" showed his commitment to the "BMBC" by revealing a secret cherrystone spot out on the flats to "Elmer"

A modest man of the world, "Ebb" calls the beach his home. "Nothing beats a sunset at the cottage."

Or maybe it's a "DIP" in the pool!

Major Award holder Eb Tide starts the shore striper season off with a 24 inch schoolie. Razor clam bait does the trick. Plymouth Harbor is the place to try, with plenty of beach to fish from.

Reports of bass in the Merrimac River and in Boston Harbor chasing bait fish near the mouth of the Charles River.  Shake out the cobwebs and sharpen your hooks. Let's hope for a great season.

"Ebb Tide" wins coveted "Major Award" for 2008

Bite Me Bait Co, Fall Classic

Ebb Tide unseats Dave as Major Award winner.

37 inch, 18.5 pound fish fish does the job. Ebb had his fish in the first 5 minutes of the evening. No sooner had he cast out his bait then the fish hit. " I just couldn't believe it." said Ebb. "Then my reel breaks with the fish still some way from shore. Thanks, Elmer and  Rock Bottom for assisting with netting and landing."  Dave, who has held the trophy since the spring of 2005, was on hand to turn over the "Major Award". "This is my best fish from this spot in a long time." said Ebb  "I'm a happy fisherman tonight!"

Not only did Ebb win the Fall Classic but scores the biggest shore fish from the "secret spot" in 2008.

Now I know a good catch when I see one!

And this ain't it! Another fan tailed striper!

A couple of nice saw toothed stripers for the grill!
