Fished last evening, water was dirty nothing showing but had a 5-10 lb blue on every cast for an hour and a half before dark. these things were super aggressive missing the plug as they charged it. Alot of fun for a top water junkie.

I didn't fish. I think really rough water is over rated anyways...

Great to look at, often way too hard too fish.

If I had fished I probably would have tucked up inside either the mouth of the East or West Passage or the Sakonnet River.

North Shore... Did excellent!!! The Beverly thru Magnolia shoreline fished pretty good. (Note to self: Change out 2x strong VMC hooks for 3x strong VMC hooks.... Or stronger...) Lost a few Big Girls to trashed hooks today...
They loved the spook I was tossing....

I would have had three times more bass and blues had I not thought I was going to perish in a lightening storm. But I could still see fish jumping out of the water while this was going on. The lightening was hitting the entire area we were on and nearby homes. Two people from here fished right thru it :wall: :skulz: :huh:

Got some more blues 10+ pounds at a different spot but no bass...

Fished both nights. Got wet, strained some muscles, and caught tons of fish. Even landed a nice bass for Tattoo he took on one of his darters. Biggest fish I saw landed all weekend. :claps:

Canalman and company scored some nice fish Saturday...none for me, just lost 2. Sunday, Rob Rockcrawler got 6 -- most, if not all keepers...BB, none. Got my 2 fish last nite, 7-fish trip total. All bigguns. It's been a fishy weekend, and it seems like everyone else did pretty well, too!

Unless that dolphin makes me for a shark or a seal (a distinct possibility when I'm wearing my Skinz Hurricane :hihi: ) - I wouldn't be worried...

We were tossing white; sometimes they just arent there, using the moon as an excuse; found blues and small fish last night in the clouds...
