striperhunter as dogfish said things have not gelled yet if you are looking for big fish from the land. There was a sustained bite at the monomoy rips about 2 months ago which lasted for a while. If you come up the 17-19 that might be good, but the full moon is the 19th. If you have any flexibility I would think the days from 19-22 could be a little better. Right on the waning cycle you just might run into some large. Do you fish eels?
