Well im back from Charlestown and boy is that a fishy place I bet its better when the WIND isnt blowing
weed all over the place not terrible terrible but more than I like to deal with . Seems you hit big pods of
weed and you hang just long enough to think was that a bump from a striper or week oh set the hook
anyway , weed again . When the tide was going out on the beach side I caught 2 blues small but fiesty .
As #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& noted as the tide dropped out of Ninigrit pond everyone left and then I hooked into 2 LARGE
stripers that I had to release before landing them ( no korkers Slippery ) . When the tide turned I moved
into Ninigret pond and caught a few schoolies Thanks to a local for a lack of a better term who kindly
informed me he had hit 14 schoolies and a keeper . All in all id say it was a success Thanks to you guys I
too probably would have left too figuring the fishing was over if you hadnt told me to stick it out and it will
payoff and it did . I'll have to go back again and again when the wind is slightly less . One other guy was
catching stripers also he had a 33 and a 39 only he never said inches or pounds and I didnt ask . I saw him
fight one I had to get out of his way and it was screaming off line . I was very happy with the outcome .
No charge all though I dont mind paying a small fee if it means keeping a beach or river open to fishing
access . I fished on the east side for the convienence of being near my truck without having to get a
permit . Not many people stayed for any length of time some came through a couple casts and left I wish I
local to ocean fishing . Isnt long isalnd sinking only kidding if it did connecticut would be an ocean state
too . LOL Lets keep it the way it is gives me more chances for road trips . Again Thanks to #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&
saltheart Marc Z and Rhodyred for steering me to the good parking and fishing . Oh yeah I used eels and
smiling bills with a white curly tail and a deadly #^&#^&#^&#^& ( my wifes favorite )
Also had a cop who I guess wanted to know me better . He was in front of me pulled over and then
followed me for a few miles and then left me alone glad im not wanted and my vehicle is all legal . He was
behind me long enough to run my plate and see how Im driving you know us long hairs we must be guilty of
something . LOL
