Rock Hound, have you had the please of the Newport ferry wake yet? This is a poor move on my part, but I was anchored fishing the humps in my 14' skiff just south of Conimicut Light the other day when he went by....the ferry was fairly far away so I didn't think the wake would be too bad but once it started hitting the shallower area....Thought I might have been in big trouble-big, steep waves! Lesson learned though....

BI ferry, forget about it-I run and hide like a little girl!

Bottom line is this behavior sucks. I don't want to risk losing a Hopkins and don't have a slingshot, so it's usually just the finger or a pyramid sinker.....
