Can you folks recommend some shore spots at Misquamicut? What is the spot like that you went to for the leg last week?

Do I need Korkers there?

Thanks,
Rob

Misquamicut, no korkers necessary just wide open beach. Quite a few people drive it. You have Weakapaug Breachway in the east and Watch Hill Light in the west, you'll need korkers there. The light and the breachway are productive, and people do catch off the beach as well. The Andrea Hotel has lights out back that attract bait, other than that I don't have a ton of experience with that area.

Fishpart,

I have caught some decent blues and stripers there during the night tides but nothing too big. I have had great success in the middle of a fall day chunking herring or menhaden right outside that huge hotel(forget name of it) The breachway now is getting allot of runs in the day from bonito. I was there last friday and they had the peanut bunker pushed right up to the shore at the andrea at around 830 at night. Landed about 16 blues and a small bass it lasted for about 30 minutes then it was dead,kinda of weird!
