i was wondering if anyone knows where bucky brook in
warwick, RI is located exactly ? (General area, Maybe a nearby street or beach)

I really would like to see these structures, i am doing a project for school on wild life environment restoration.

it's located right near tf green..you need to sneak in through one of the gates when the guards are changing shifts. whatever you do don't stop, if they wave at you just wave back and keep going. towards the end of the runway near the fuel tanks there is a brook. the bugs are thick so you may want to wrap a towel around your head to help ward them off. just remember you need a license to harvest herring...good luck

Red - that was funny

Chowda - that run has been roughed up so much that they almost closed it this year and they did implement a 12 fish instead of 24 fish bag limit... Ya might want a different run...

Jackbuttt - I was at the meetings, I've been to the run, I live there, it's dang near empty (so whatcha doin' in 3-4 weeks :hihi: )


I was momentarily psyched Saturday. I drove by a part of the run (like I always do) and saw this odd glimmer and movement. So I turned around, pulled over and kept looking at it. Up close I saw no fish, down stream appeared a lot of commotion on the stream. As I waited and waited for the "commotion" to approach upstream I was wondering WTH was going on. The "commotion" never approached and never retreated. But as the water dropped I realized it was the shiny upper rails of a shopping cart piercing the water and reflecting the afternoon sun. Not a "commotion" of buckeys...


Clammer - is that Sadie on that sign you have up the street??
