Most dangerous places to surfcast
What do you think are the most dangerous surf locations?
In this area, I would think that Hazard Ave in Narragansett is the worst; the place is haunted by the lost souls of fishermen. I won't even fish there even though my grandfather had a place nearby and I had easy access.
The North Rip of Block Island is a place that will suck fishermen in with its siren call. When I was fishing there int he 80s, an oldtimer from Block was lost there. It is seductivey easy to walk way, way out...
The extreme tip of Gooseberry is radical and I am suprised that no one have been swept away there. I fished there a few times in my youth, but the prospect of being caught by a rising tide is too terrifying to deal with. If you fell in, you would float around Buzzards Bay all night dodging tugs and barges and commerical fishing boats out fo New Bedford. No thanks.
