stick with eels and sluggos and be patient. lots of small bait around my area right now and I took two high teen/low twenty pound fish last night, one on a sluggo and one on an 18" riggie.

Back Beach im with ya 100pcent, its a great deal for the daytime blitzchasers with all the schoolies and blues you could want, but rarley do i find good fish.
One of the few times i did find bass of reasonable size was three or four falls ago when the cows showed up to pick off the dead peanuts lying on the beach after dark, the tide came in, washed the dead nuts into the surf, and the cows had an easy feast.

Ya right and even a broken clock is right twice a day.....you want quality fish you use meat.Especially in Rhode Island...Go to any breachway and watch the clowns drift plugs and hoot and holler then take a look at the fish they ctach all thru the fall, 80% Bluefish 20% bass up to maybe 12lbs or so however most are dinks.Then some guy nails a 20lber and thinks thats a big deal....the guys tossing eels along the beach are taking much larger bass.

Hey pluggin is fun at times and it cant be beat for numbers of fish, I like it now and then also...but when I am looking for a good bass its eels all the way...

Oh ya and Al McReynolds is one of the luckiest guys on earth, cause it certainly aint his skill that caught that fish...right place, right time...every now and then the tail wags the doggie, I wouldent call him a "sharpie" in any sense of the word acually he most likely used bait but stuck a plug in the fishes mouth for the endorsment and cash from the plugmaker.....There are many who do that..
