Does anyone know a good spot to try Wolf Fishing off of Salem/Marblehead ? I want to try it on my way to meet up with Doug et al, but have never been. I know you fish deep but with what ? And where ? Thanks ! Rick Ticket 85 SF Falmouth, MA

Troll one of the Three Little Pigs about 50ft on a planer. Couldn't help myself for that one. Gene Dugan

Rick, The only wolf fish I'vew ever caught were while we were catching cod about 5 miles out. They're deep and although I know they eat lobsters and crabs, we caught them on sea clams. Mean mean bastards. Frank Price

rick, Look on your chart. A few miles straight out from Magnolia/Gloucester (just SW of Gloucester harbor entrance) are Saturday Night Ledge & Burnham Rocks. Use clams on the drop offs. If you don't get a wolffish, you should be able to get some cod or Haddock. Good Luck Al 1978 33 FBC NITES OFF

Don't forget your camera. These wolffish are not common are they? Good luck.

I never heard a Wolffish before, so I looked it up, interesting, seems like it would taste like Sheephead's we have down here. Ah, a sheep in wolf scales![:D] www.afprotein.com/wolf.htm 1979 Bertram 33' FBC ALEXANDRA Port Richey, Florida
