Welcome Little Sister Charters - Quincy MA

[Gerry Zagorski]

Please help me extend a warm NJfishing.com welcome to Captain Jason Colby and the crew of Little Sister Charters, located in Quincy Mass http://littlesister1.com/

Little Sister Charters specializes in ocean fishing for striped bass, flounder, cod and bluefish. Captain Jason is an avid fisherman and has years of experience fishing in the Quincy area.

Earlier summer and spring months cod are more plentiful. Limiting out on Cod and Flounder in May and early June is common aboard The Little Sister. If you are looking to catch striped bass the summer is the time to come.

Welcome Captain Jason and crew and best of luck fishing this year.

Gerry

Welcome aboard. Pun intended

Welcome I have a question on the limit of flounders. Is it 2 per man or are they yellow tail flounder with no limit.

[shrimpman steve]

Welcome.

Welsome Jason, haven't fished with you in a while. It is usually 8 per man on blackbacks north of Cape Cod and unlimited on yellowtails. You can usually get your limit on mudhole sized fish in a half day trips and maybe get some striper action if you are fishing in June or July.

Welcome aboard Jason when I lived in NY a good friend of mine named Pat De Angela spoke highly of you. It's good to see you here & I'm looking forward towards reading your reports. Maybe a road trip will be in order I got to see what my schedule holds during the months when the flounder bite is good.

Hello All! Please note that Gerry was quoting from my website which is a bit outdated. Please disregard the word "cod" wherever you see it on my site!
10 to 15 years ago, cod were actually a nuisance when trying to catch flounder in Quincy!! Sadly, these past few years, it is rare if we get more than a couple the whole year.
The limit is 8 flounder per person and while the size is "12 inches and up", on my boat we try to start at 14 inches and when we have 1/2 the limit go to 15. At 3/4 the limit we go to 16 and for the last few fish we keep only bleeders and MONSTERS.
I do two trips a day: 6-11am and noon-5pm. The base price is $450 for up to 4 persons and $75/person for a 5th and 6th (6 people=$600). Pricing includes a flat of worms, clams, tackle (good stuff) and fish cutting/bagging. All you need is a cooler with ice and whatever you want to wear, eat and drink. Perhaps sunscreen, camera and sun glasses are a good idea as well.
I get quite a few guys from NJ each spring and what a lot of the groups do is travel in the morning and hit the afternoon trip on day one, stay at The Motel 6 in Braintree or The Adams Inn in Quincy (each are 15-20 minutes from the boat) and then go for the morning trip the next day. This works well as they are on the road after lunch and they beat (most of) the traffic back home.
Please send me a direct email with your specific questions or feel free to ask them here if you like.

Thank you Doug! Pat D'Andrea of Seaford is a good friend who comes up to visit once in awhile. I'm afraid he might be "finished" as a woman has finally got him where he can't get away.
I told him "it's too late for me, save yourself"! I don't think he's fast enough......JC

Thank you all for all the "welcomes"!

Tog- yes the 8 flounder is correct and unlimited yellow tails is also true but there is an issue with that: My boat gets about 3 to 5 "real yellow tails"/year so I just treat them like black backs as part of the regular count. The best part of that reasoning is that the EPO's (Environtmental Police Officers) in The Boston Harbor area, for the most part, couldn't tell a bb from a yt from a sea dab. For a big day that you limit out anyway is it really worth the potential hassle?
What we do see every day is black back (winter) flounder that have some yellow near their tail. Inevitably, someone on the boat pronounces it "a yellow tail"! I included a picture with the two species side by side (bottom is the YT)........JC

A few pics from 2014. While we get as many as 30 tog each spring while flounder fishing, we let most of the go as they are inevitably pregnant females loaded with roe.
In the fall my boat is in Westport where it is "tog heaven". There we limit out every day on fish up to "teen size" but realistically, 8-10 pound fish usually are the best of a given day.....JC
