Cod
While not as prolific as other groundfish, Cod can be found off Westport Point, Massachusetts, particularly during the colder months. The offshore waters, especially around structure like wrecks and reefs within Buzzards Bay and further south, hold the most promise. Winter and early spring are generally the best times to target Cod, as they move closer to shore in search of food. Employ traditional Cod fishing methods such as jigging with heavy metal jigs or using bait rigs baited with clams or squid. Accessing these offshore locations requires a seaworthy boat. A practical tip for Westport Point: check local fishing reports for recent Cod sightings, as their distribution can be patchy. Cod populations in this area have fluctuated in recent years, so practicing responsible fishing and adhering to regulations is crucial for the long-term health of the fishery.
