Talked to DZ a coupla nites ago before he left for FLA and he told me a friend of ours who is the senior biologist for RI DEM said there are now 'huge shoals' of herring right off the coast - and this guy is out doing trawls every day.

That afternoon I was crossing the Jamestown Bridge and saw a large flock of gulls in the ripline that runs up the West Passage

Nahhhhh, couldn't be....

Yup, I got the rosary beads out praying for an early spring - and I'm not even Catholic, they're a loaner set.

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
