Was interested in joining a surfcasters/striper club.

looking for club thats stands behind what they believe in, no drama, is run right, no bs, a club thats made up of people you would actually want to fish with.

I dont have a boat or really like fishing from a boat so looking more a surfcasting club I guess.

Looking to expand my knowledge and grow as fisherman and fish with like minded people.

any suggestions??? or clubs I should stay away from?

Thanks in advance, you can always PM me if youd like and keep things private.

Just my opinion so don't everyone jump ugly with me.

I have belonged to a ton of Clubs in RI over the last 40+ years. Up untill 2006 I was stricktly a surf rat so all the clubs I belonged to were surf clubs.

In my opinion, and this is just my opinion, none of the clubs are worth the time it takes to attend a meeting. Unless your objective is to get a trophy for bragging rights, it's just time better spent fishing.

There is always a bunch of BS involved, lots of egos about who wants to be an officer, etc. The only club I enjoyed was Thundermist in Woonsocket and that folded when Lanny Grazini died about 5 years ago. #^&#^&#^&#^& Cournoyer, who fishes with a lot of the guys here, on Cutty, was in that Club. We use to have a good time. All these guys cared about was catching big Stripers.

As I stated, I just find there is too much nonsense involved. I do belong to RISAA but mostly because of their PAC and the influence they can put on the politicians in RI.

I'm in a few clubs I like, I know of others, no drama is hard. Newport is great, so good that they don't meet in fishing season ;) . CT Surfcasters is a great club. There are other clubs that I like and that I'm a member of (MSBA, 'Gansett) that are good clubs, do good work, and in many ways lead, but there is some drama.

Yes the Connecticut Surfcasters Club is like the old Twilight Zone episode- A Stop At Willoughby.

When you get out of your car and walk towards the CSA meeting room you are transported to another place and time where life is slower and a man can live his life to the measure of his days.

This stop Willoughby.
