Shad

[Clammer]

The guy next to me last night was upset because he couldn,t catch a shad small enough for live lining .
they were the largest I,ve seen in a long time .one was just over 22".

Dragon Shad?

Years ago we use to fish the Great Island bridge and live line Shad in the channel. So there was this guy from CT who had a giant live well in his pickup. I saw him get a 61# Bass right on the corner of Champlin's.

I’ve caught some nice bass live lining hickory shad in the Westport River.

Clammer,

I got to believe the you very well may be the best and most knowledgeable fisherman in RI. Still chuckle when I think of your bait trick for trout. You are one sly fox.

He towed a boat with a 63 Corvette. That alone should win the award for best (or most dedicated) fisherman in RI.

Tide starts to drop at 8:00 PM, 2 hours later on the backside of a certain deserted island and BANG, BOOM, SMASH. And Clammer shows me how it's done from the boat before I had a boat!
