FB There are very distinct changes in the topography of the north vs the south side. I had figured north side of the vineyard at first figuring that Jim was close to home. If it wasnt there then where he was would have been one of the only other places like that. Also the topography of the beach too. There are changes in where the rocks are on the beaches. Because of the prevailing sw wind with the tide and swell if you look at a south beach vs a north beach area you'll see what I mean.

The first picture he showed was a sandy beach. There aren't too many sandy beaches on the south side of the islands it's more cobblestrewn rock.
The second was a sand to pebble to cobble in deeper water with a small rocky outcropping. Few places you'd find this on the southside-it would be larger 1-3' typical rocks closer to the beach with some areas having large boudlers like around Frenchmans etc-not sand.

Yeah, I just mixed it up. When I was a kid, we used to fish up "inside" of Cutty and Naushon and do pretty well. We left out of Fairhaven and would be by ourselves on the north side when everyone else was playing musical boats on the south side, or as we called it "the outside". I haven't been out that way in probably 20 years and those pics make me miss it.
