Bass may be tough, but there were lots of bluefish on the BB side of Quicks today. Didn't see any albies, but they are due any day now.
For bass I'd try Woods Hole/Robinsons/ Quicks as early as you can get there. White danny's, pencils, or spooks.

And be careful - LOTS of debris in the water.

I was at the end of my street yesterday and could see two decent size logs floating in the water so I don't imagine it is much different there.

BB and VS are murky, weedy and with lots of junk floating around. I was on the Fast Ferry to NB and they sucked up something in the port engine. The ferry was vibrating and they stopped the boat and back-up hard and got whatever was in there out as we carried on without further adieu.

keep an eye out

Whaaat? You're back on the water already? I wanna see a picture of your peg leg...probably made it yourself out of some extra basswood...hopefully you sealed it properly.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Looks like I may have some new tree trunks to sit on and rest my bones at the Lumber Yard the SW corner of Block this November. Probably originating from the Connecticut, Hudson, and Thames Rivers. Wouldn't want to hit one of them in a boat!
