Narragansett was post-Armageddon in the winter. People in south of Warwick did not embrace the disco culture - at all. It was bleak. The chance to get together with a bunch of cool guys who were active and in their prime and to fish for money - that must have eclipsed a lot of lives with respect to true enjoyment.
Hey Joe, that's not true. We ran to The Back, smoked joints and crushed bass all night. Some of the guys did that go fast dust to stay up for 3 or 4 days but most of us just caught fish, sold fish and had a great time.

No boat, back in the suds.
