Cod
Cod fishing off Ocean Bluff presents a classic New England angling experience. The offshore waters hold historic cod grounds, though regulations and fish populations fluctuate, requiring anglers to stay informed. The cooler months, generally late fall through early spring, are prime time for cod, as they move closer to shore in search of food. Focus your efforts on rocky bottom structures and wrecks, where cod congregate. A practical tip for Ocean Bluff: Check the local fishing reports for recent hot spots and any changes in regulations regarding size and bag limits. The Scituate Harbor offers a convenient launch point, but be mindful of weather conditions as the Atlantic can change rapidly. Jigging with heavy metal lures or bait fishing with clams or herring are effective methods. Remember to use appropriate tackle for the deep water and potentially large fish you might encounter.
