  • They were feeding on butterfish
  • Sakonnet River
It became stupid fishing... People stopped casting because it was pointless.. bluefish were all over the place and were hitting the lines and anything else that was in the water... A week or 2 later Pogies came down the river and got ambushed... Nannaquaket Pond was a slaughter zone for a couple of weeks.. Monster blues and bass trapped the pogies... After they left it was devoid of fish for a while...
It also ran around Common Fence Point.

I was there for that one, that was incredible, the bait was trapped n Nannaquaket and couldn't get out without running the gauntlet. It was just totally unreal
