I fish from a boat A LOT. The experience is a little different than shore fishing but many of the same principles apply.
If you want to catch that keeper, your best bet is eeling especially this time of year.
There happens to be a good article on eeling from boats in Soundfishing right now. It's written by Stu Adams, a Ct. guy who is one very successful Striper Eeler.
I'm sure there are some structure area's in Narragansett that are holding keepers, and now's the time!
This last weekend off Old Saybrook, it was stripers on just about every drift.
Good luck, and don't worry what the shore guys say about us boaters, they're just jealous!
