I realize some decent single fish will be taken here and there prior to mid may up in the rivers and also points way south. For SE Mass and RI its ususally closer to Memorial Day before big numbers of large fish show.Last couple of years its been May 15 or so for the Canal and Gansett. Back to my rest.....:sleeps:

having thought about it
 

for a little while this morning

fishing will start for me
as far as striped bass fishing goes

as soon as my deposited rebate check
from the government clears in MAY

had luck last 2 years river fishing 3/16-17

When the ice is gone. Then it's on to spring trout, and then on to stripers.

Boat is being launched March 30th
 

I will fish the 1st week of April. I got my 1st keeper last year on April 25th. Bucktail jig and pork on the bottom.

I did catch a few schoolies last weekend in the Prov River.
