Tunacell,
Well, your freind is behind the times, it became illegal about 20 years ago. And yes I know boats fish there all the time in defiance of the law. You should also know that the RI DEM and C.G. occasionally do police the area nad issue summonses, but not nearly often enough to suit me.
Look at a chart. If your talking about the sub-bouy that lies to the southwest of block island, it is clearly in Federal water.
