I have not seen many fishing reports from RI and I know the surf guys are not slamming them so I thought I post a report from the Bay for my boat.

There are still adult bunker in the upper bay and tons of big fish around. Fish Sat morning very early (3:00 AM). Had 6 fish between 18 and 24lbs. The only thing that stopped me was I ran out of eels. Real cold but no wind. Sunday was a blow out. Wind way to strong. Tried to get down the bay again at 3:00 but had to turn back as the wind came up hard NW about 4 AM. I heard of a couple of 20s taken way North in Providence yesterday....out of the wind.

Thanks Paul. Surf was so-so last night in Gansett for me. Got 6 fish, mostly small, under 30", and some pirahnas too. Best two were 36" and 39",maybe 16-18#. Still some decent fish around, gonna give it hell for two or three more weeks at least.

blew for me. 2 fish short. I'll be at it tonight again.

In general, I'm not so sure I understand why guys love the fall so much. For me it's always been hot or miss.

The way the fishing is up North here there is going to be fishing till after X-Mass, the Water temp. is still close to 60* up here and we still have Blues and big bass, It has begun up here but it is going to go on for another 2 to 3 weeks

Jim:
they are coming. I have seen a steady progression down the Bay the last 10 days. Still quite a few miles away, however.

Fri evening I had my two boys on some scoolies in the bay and could barely get the plug back in the water before I had to boat and unhook another fish. They told their mom they only had a "little bit of fun"....

THey probably didn't want her to feel bad about not going with them.
