I got a late start this year. The first trip was to block in mid June and did great it was the best trip I ever had. 22 fish in 5 hours with 3 guys. I thought it was going to be a awesome season. I kept the boat in Newport this year and fished Brenton Reef and Cliffwalk, The Fountain, Beavertail, Fort Weterall, Second Beach and Narragansett. And I will tell you straight out the fishing was awfull. I got 14 fish the rest of the year. Brenton Reef was a grave yard. I caught one 12 pounder all season. Last time I went out the reef was holding scup and bluefish. I have not seen loads of bait like in past years. Either the weather or pollution of over fishing has hurt the stocks. I think next year will tell the tale. Unless the fall run starts soon. Surfrunner is going into hibernation until the spring. Go Redsox.
