It did happen on Block but, it took many years..many...Thats the big problem with the Internet..It only took cutty two seasons to be destroyed, way to many people out there and everyone knows about it and they all found out to fast..You have to ask yourselves how many people read this site and how many trips were organized just from this site alone?? Before you guys made a private cutty forum etc...even still..the forum reads "cutty"..Talk about the "spot burn" that place was burned right here and no one noticed???? give me a break?? Evereyone had a hand in the demise of that place, it has become the gen-x hotspot..The tough thing is that likwid is right, the place is PRIVATE..No matter how you slice it, you have no right whatsoever to be on that private property..None...Block is different, there are many places to fish which are not private and the place is ten times the size..And then you have the stories about the place...A certain person I know got mutilated for writing about spots yet, it seems it bothers no one that cutty has been written about...It was also featured on television.

Evereyone is going to lose on this one, that Island is just way to small to handle what has come there way and, from what I hear the bass club is not going to be around much longer.
Piemma is right either get a boat or stop complaining, private property is a fact of life in surf fishing and access..when a 50% private Island gets overrun in a season or two, people are going to take notice..

When Block Island was hot, there was no Internet or lighting fast communication like there is now, there were no "big" club organized assaults on the Island like what goes on on cutty..Not saying its bad just saying its very different, plus the place is just so small..How many clubs and people are already booked for next spring?? yikes...I would rather fish the mainland...everyone on that place wants to crowd and squezz in at the pigs..

Cutty is a victim of to much way to soon...
