Is it over?? for the cows in rhody??

Just got off the phone with my idol,Tim Coleman.

I gave him my gloomy report and he gave me his.Looks like the night time surf is devoid of large bass here in rhody.The daytime action is great but its all school bass.To make things worse,Tim onfirmed for me that long island is in the midst of a blitz the likes of which hasent happened there in a few years,With many cows and lots of big bunker all around long island.

Im afarid to say the bass are there and they normally dont turn and come back here until next june!! Connecticut is doing well also as you have seen from jeffs reports and tim has friends that are doing well in CT also.

I asked him what his overall assement was? He said that he thought 90percent of the big bass have passed us by already on the tails of those bunker which never swung in close to rhodys shoreline.He also though one still stands a chance at a cow here at night but,the odds are slim and it will all be the right place right time type of deal.

Block island does still have plenty of fish but, again,those bass wont swing in here.Looks like beating your brains out at night right now isnt worth the effort,in rhode island anyway.

I just may do some daytime stuff just to feel the rod bend but, I sure miss those cows of the last few years.This happens however and it looks like this year just isnt our turn for the cows.Im sure there are still some biggies that need to move past and someone somewhere will bump into them!! If its you,God bless!!

Overall the fall 2000 is poor and is one of the worst I have seen in rhode island waters.Sure the daytime stuff is there with the dinks but big fish are nill and sparce at the very best!!
