That sounds like a great idea and a good way to get people together.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I'm in too, but we'll all have to listen to Tyler complain about catching small fish. He's been spoiled.

Just tell him catching small fish is a great way to obtain live bait for the bigger fish. You can never have too many skills when it comes to fishing.
Great idea Niko! |

Great idea! Unfortunately the grandparents will have my son that weekend so mom and dad can get a little r&r in Newport.

I will try to do this. My 4 yr old will love it, just going to be tough leaving his 2 1/2 yr old sidekick behind. He worships his older brother.

What are some possible kid friendly locations? RI / Mass line area? Newport to Buzzards Bay?

in newport you could easily van stant pier, lots of room and parking, good bottom fishing spot.
on the jamestown side you could hit the old bridge area, theres a pier on that side.
sakonnet break wall is usually a good spot this time, albies, fluke, scup, bass and blues, you never know what your getting out there.
hope that helps.
great idea niko.

Sakonnet wouldn't be good for young ones at all. I'll see what I can come up with. How about a beach spot? A little safer than a Jetty.

If we do an easy beachy spot you can bring him. He can hang with Trent. |

Easy beachy is fine as long as it is a fishy spot. Nothing worse than taking a bunch of kids fishing and not catching - thats why I was thinking scup

If my daughter doesn't make other plans, I'd like to get me and my grandson in on this.

We're in!! Jake would love it, as we fish daily (fresh water) but he wants to go scupping. Tons of scup in the Taunton River, mostly boat spot though. Any week end in Aug is fine.

I'm definitely in. How about Ned's Point in Mattapoisett? Not sure if it's resident only - lived there as a kid and spent every summer day possible on the peirs. Filled a 5 gallon bucket with scup and forgot to tell mom that I put it in the basement.  |

Ned's point is a good place for a gathering and short drive to the piers.

the piers in mattapoisett seem to be the winner. i'm not familiar w/ the spot so someone answer a few questions. plenty of parking? access to bathrooms? just in case. do the piers have railings or are they more like comm piers? we should probably give the harbormaster a call and just clue him in that we are invading the pier

Parking on the piers are supposedly for residents only w/ sticker. If it's a busy weekend they get a bit snitty. But there is plenty of street parking. There are restrooms at the Harbormasters shack, no railings . No sticker needed for Ned's point and there are picnic tables and such. Buzzards Bay Anglers Club holds their Scup Cup on the pier every year. We are trying to do it again in Sept this year - watch for it in club announcements.
