Town of Rockport

Rockport, MA, on little Cape Ann, is an hour northeast of Boston. It becomes a nice tourist trap in the summer, but a year round fishing town for the working folk.

It's a little early for the lobster season, otherwise all the lines you see would be hanging onto a lobster trap in the cold, deep blue. But try a fish caught from these boats just two hours prior, and you'll taste heaven.

Fishing boats move with the tide. This afternoon is very low tide.
