I took one look and thought....Oh no, RI fishers are going to be ripped. Then I read it, realized that the beach was make believe, and liked the concept. What an idea, taking a mix of veteran surfmen and having them analyze the same terrain. I thought it was cool to find differences and similarities in their analysis. I must have flipped back and forth to see the map 100 times, as Flap and others were technical on wind direction and tides, I almost tore the map out, b/c I was tired of flipping.

I'm no bait soaker, but would still love to walk the jetty with a needle at night. I'd be a little concerned about lobster traps and markers, but would still try the jetty. After fanning the jetty (both sides), I would check the beach and structure just west. If it was crowded, I may take the walk just to see what others were up to. I'm most comfortable at night, and would bring an assortment of Needlefish in dark colors, some bucktails, and lead head w/ plastics.

Thanks OTW Zeno Flap Steve M and company, I'll be dreaming of Phantom beach tonight.

Excellent concept. Great Write. Great read.
