Redlite is right, Cuttyhunk is a dangerous place. You get all those Van Staals in one place at the same time and it is liable to flip over on ya. Be careful if you go.

I loved Cuttyhunk the one time I went, but the catching was not good at all and we went out there with some real sharpies. The fishing was really good though!
seriously though, some make it out to sound like 50's are just beaching themselves and redlite certainly made it look like that with his impressive skills this past year, but it seems to me the guys that are successful overthere (like Steve, Redlite, Afterhours) have been fishing it for years and years and have really gotton to know the place.

That said, it's a really really special place that I am dying to go back to, the entire experience is just awesome.

Exactly Not my bag and those aren't my hands You have to keep an eye out for those guys from CT. Next time I'm out there with those guys, I'm hiding my stuff.

Aah, forgot about that already. I recognize those sausage hands, must plan retaliation.

I'm no Cutty regular, but its no big deal, don't make it some mystical pilgramage, its not.

if next season pans out like last season, your better off getting a room at the YMCA in proidence and snag and drop pogies in the providence river.. you will catch 5 times more bass there than on cutty.

And Providence has better looking chicks!

Now I thought last year was pretty good on Cuttyhunk. Granted I wasn't blessed with any of those Fairhaven 50's but I caught my share of 20+ lb fish. Early June was best. Ya never know when the fish will show but if you put in the time you can usually drag up something.

Has anyone ever brought a mountain bike with rod tubes (and a good headlight) over on the boat?

It's a relatively small island - seems like it would work...

Not like there's a lot of traffic to dodge, either -

I had thought about it quite a few times and seen some people utilize this method, but here are my thoughts why I didn't (mainly cause I gots 4 wheeler usage)
It really limits your ability to hunt.
If you leave it and pound the shore line hunting, you still need to walk back along the shoreline to where you left it. And it is tough riding it over the dirt roads with fish.
I have found that it is just easier to make the hike to sows (about 30 mins) or Churches or out to the cut (Impossible to ride a bike out to) and it isn't worth the hassle of dealing with a bike.
