True story.
Several years ago I was talking to a neighbor and some guy with him that I had never met. We got to talking about fishing and how great the striper fishing in the state was. The stranger says "yea, you can even catch big bass right out here" motioning to the Sakonnet basin in front of us.
I remark (half in jest) "they're no bass out there, the pogie boats already killed 'em all!".
The guy worked for Arc Bait
