Can't stand the place myself. Can't figure out what draws all the people there? Last time I was there I almost got arrested for photographing the mansions, from the road mind you! I told the cop that the rich folks there don't own the roads. Guess again! eessed: You can have it....

I thought Newport used to be a rundown biker town that the Navy pulled out of???

I’ve been here for eight years and it seems like a nice place to me… it has great restaurants, a ton of bars , shops for the misses (SWE for me), and lots of life.

I never had any problems fishing any of the areas you mentioned. Maybe the access isn’t as good as it used to be, but this is a systemic problem in NE - not just Newport.

“Can't figure out what draws all the people there?”

Maybe it’s the mansions you were photographing

What? This is the best time of year, there's no tourists here yet. Newport would be great if it was'nt for New York, Connecticut and Boston. You know it's getting worse every year when you start seeing more out of state plates all winter long.

If you don't like out-of-staters, move to the Cape... no out-of-staters there

This is just the beginning of the invasion. We've just about finished our ground assault on South County. Then we'll infect 'gansett. When we're done with you unsavory Newport natives, we're gonna push all of youze right into the water.
