Both are good. If you know the spots you can catch fish. Early season, mid season, and late season. Each has it's own advantage over the other. I can not say 1 is really better then the other, I catch Stripers either way.. throwing chunks of pogie in early august nights at gooseberry in westport. early morning plugging in newport ri. wire trolling jigs at BI in june for Bass over 40lbs...ect, ect, ect.....

Nothing like landing a monster on the surf.. I will admit that any fish over 30lbs on the surf is a challenge to land... Patience is the key though... hehe sometimes even on a boat when the Bsharks are about landing a 15lb bass is also a challange.

But my ideal situation would be a late August mid afternoon at the point over at Sachuest http://newportvisions.com/home/sachuest1.html
Bait fish as far to Sakonnet Point as you can see and up to the rocks out about a mile from the point. Stripers surfing the shoreline, blues breaking in the back. Bonita and Albies Ripping thru just massive,MASSIVE explosions in the water. The weather.. 82 degrees, low humidity, no wind, no clouds, no birds to tangle into, and everyone cast's straight.

Thats my dream of a good day
