My folks got my girlfriend and I a few nights midweek at Block Island this June as a grad present, so of course we need to fish. We're staying right in town, above the Mohegan Cafe I believe. I've been there many times before and have a good idea of what I want to do, however, I've primarily fished from a boat. I have a few dilemmas that I'm looking to settle; and remember I'll be traveling on foot or maybe even by bike.
1. Do I bring my waders/korkers, even though the gf won't have any?
This will definitely help me fish, and might even help the girl if I can piggyback her to a close/safe rock. Will also help with unhooking fish,etc, but will be a pain to pack.
Actually I guess that is really the only dilemma. Going to bring identical set ups, so if I'm casting further I can say its not because of the rod.
She doesn't like to reel in fish I hook either, which is great if shes catching, but terrible if only I am. Believe me my goal is to have her enjoy fishing as much as I do, even if I have to take it easy so I want to try an do this the best I can.
ANy thoughts or ideas???
