Yes I realize that. Swimmer. I spent the past 3 years fishing off the rocks by Fort Adams in the middle of the night on the outgoing tides. Did ok, but was difficult fishing with 3 kids. After my 14 yo daughter slipped and busted her butt on the rock, the wife didn't want me taking the kids out there, especially at night. Last year we rented a boat from the navy base 3 or 4 times and the kids loved it, so even if it is cheating just a bit, to use a boat, I can spend more quality time fishing with my kids. Prior to this it's been all salmon fishing for me in Washington state, then shortly after arriving here I went out there off Fort Adams, and after 2 hours or so of chunking poggies, I landed my first Striper (14 pounds or so) and have been hooked ever since. I hope to see some of you out there on the water this year. I'm still learning my way around the fish here, so thanks for all the advise guys.
