There are a lot of great stories about cod fishing the RI surf. A member of this board was given a custom wraped harnell rod by a guy who landed a 25lber from RI's most western point. He said he would never be able to top that, quit fishing and gave away his rod and reel.

A notorious Block Island heavy hiter used to do as good of a job on them as he did on the bass, jigging one of the rivers on the mainland.

Each winter you hear a few stories buzz around about some lucky guys cashing in from the sand.
