Breachway Dredging

The Army Corps of Engineers are planning on dredging Charlestown,Quonny and Weekapaug breachways. No dates were given in the artical(projo.com-search;breachway).I have been told by the oldtimers at Charlestown breachway that this GREATLY improves the fishing as more water is able to move thru the channels. The artical says they are talking about removing the large boulders out front of Charlestown breachway because they are a potential hazard to boaters. Also talk of digging sediment basins in the breachways to trap sand from entering the ponds. Overall this should improve the fishing in these areas as long as they dont start til next december
