I fished near wet weather waste water discharge #017 today
 

Not a bite!:af: Drove through all kinds off traffic to get there. Anyone know where this is?

ya im almost 100% sure where your talkin about. no need to name names.:)


the other side is much better. but theres probally alot of ice right now. i wouldnt even bother over there until it breaks up.

nope

oops haha:)

is it in gansett? if so yes I know....I wouldnt bother fishing there till spring...

Not in gannsett:confused:

Never swim at Scarborough:bshake: :yak:

Providence!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yes:happy:

I've tried it a couple times this winter and got skunk!!! I think I'll try tommorow.

You are a brave soul:D

A good part of the area was frozen over, including all along the bridge. Goodluck tomorrow if ya go, ass loads of traffic the whole way there, i left at 3 to go there and stayed till 7.

That was toooo easy//////////////////////:D


THe fish gotta be there // its deep in there /// I didn,t realize it until we fished it & had a d/f =usually just throw in the tin boat=====&thats good enough==============:cool:

That holdover article in OTW emphasized that most often the fish are on the bottom and it was crucial to fish the bottom with small plastics...

So.. if you were tossing poppers, the bass were lookin up and laughing at you.

I'm going so crazy I might have to go up there and try to catch some shopping carts or something.....I'd settle for a rusty bike....

holdovers on bottom holding within about a foot of structure. pink over white bucktails. 1/2oz, not too thick. my fave.

I've caught hundreds of schoolies there last year. Very small jig heads and small zoom fluke. Best bite is at night right along the shadow lines. very slow presentation along the bottom. If you can still get on the docks that' good too closest to the bridge

good luck too cold for schoolie in my backs opinion.

Most people fish small bucktails there with rubber tails but its also fairly productive for guys who drown bait on the bottom.

I tried four inch albino zoom flukes on 1/2 oz head, 4 inch pearl wildeye shads, and also 1/2 ox laughing jim with and w/o a curlytail. All were worked around the bottom, i tried every area i could reach by foot, i was there for close to 2 hours.:confused:

Unfortunately you can sometimes try all afternoon and get nothing from shore while watching the guys in boats in the middle pull one in every cast!.

hi cheferson, sorry but the 4" may be too big. The very smalles possible is best there and extremely slow I mean let it rest on the bottom, bounce it a little every second or two or a very very slow retreive. and try cutting an inch off the head ad tuck it tight to the jig.

Yup RIP. What I found that works well for holdover is the 4" white gillrakers, fresh water bait. I bite off about an inch off the head and use a 1/4oz jig. Gillrakers have a much more slender body profile then a grub. They can be hard to find. I get mine from 'Northern Bass Supply' in NH next day.

[[ I bite a inch off the head ]] :confused: :confused: :confused:

Hey is there a martini bar around the corner from the spot your talking about:rolleyes: :confused:

There are a couple of bars right there,if there was a Hooters we would get a daily report from clammer.Right now there is a lot of ice.

I was gonna give another shot next wed probally? Any more advice??

Thanks

Yes, if it is as cold next wednesday as it is today, see a shrienk!

Go buy this months 'On The Water' magazine read the article on holdovers.

When your in Prov, go get a slice of pizza from Felinies...

Dont talk to strangers. :D

Read it a while ago. THats why i tried the zoom albino flukes. Hopefully next wed ill actually catch something, be the first day free of the (ex gf) too!!!!!:cheers: :cheers: :bo: :hee: :humpty: :humpty: :jump1: :jump1: :jump: :happy:

I think there may be ice still //if I get that way m or T =I<ll tell ya;)

There was ice there this past wed, but there was still a goo portion still castable from both sides, only off the bridge was too frozen over, besides a small 10-15 ft area.

"Wet Weather Discharge" ------ thats part of the antiquated sewer system in the city, with the "combined sewer overflow". Both the storm flow and sewers go to the sewage treatment plant, but when there is a lot of storm runoff the plant cant handle the flow, so they have these outlets directly to the rivers and bay that will discharge both stormwater AND raw sewage. Hopefully the tunnel project underway in Providence will solve this problem. SOOOO, you were basically fishing next to poop shoot No. 17 :yak:

Both boat ramps & the outflow is open:p

Thanks clammer, im heading up wed to try again with a friend from work. Gonna catch something this time. I think pickering said something about snow, and this area.

I had one on yesterday at the fence===good luck ================================================== ========if you going PM ///////me & if you don,t mind I might be able to hook up with ya ====================:eek:

FYI, saw in today's ProJo that Dave Pickering will be presenting at the RISAA meeting tommorrow (Monday) night on Fishing for Holdovers in Providence, 7 pm Coventry Elks, $10 non-members

Special details on removing toilet paper from guides and dis-infecting equipment will be provided :alien:

So now ill probally have some competition up there after all the guys from pickerings seminar get the same idea. Clammer ill give you a pm if i go on wednessday, most likely gonna make it up there. What size was the one ya got the other day?

Can,t lie =idin,t get the fish in =but anything feels good this time of year///////////

:laughs: :laughs: :laughs: Calmma your a pisah you crack me up:smash:

Crack -Up :faga:
