I think figuring out new spots is little easier in Rhody than at a lot of sand beach spots. Rocky strutures tend to be far more stable than shifting sand structures.
You can break the spots down by structure and look for features that are common to spots you know....
A lot of Rhode Island's rocky points, reefs, and minor points, share commonalities and fish well under the same condition sets....of course, a lot don't.
A lot of boat guys don't know the names of the spots they fish - they fish by structure. Surfcasters tend to be more focused on names.
Knowing the feeding behavior of the fish you are pursuing and the primary bait that is currently avaiable can help greatly.
You can also get a map and look for drop offs and places that have deep water adjacent.
I once suggested an article called "I Never Fished There" in which I would go to a spot and fish it by theory only.....but it got rejected.
