then that is your best option, golver. Head east on 102. When you get to Rt. 2 N (just past home depot) take a left. One mile on the left is Quaker Lane.

Then back down to 102 and head east until you get to Rt. 1. Left on Rt 1. About a mile up you will see a traffic light and wickford appliance. Go straigh through light, pass police/fire/rescue, road is right there on the right. Go straight down and you will eventually get to the ramp.

See you out there!

Great! Thanks for the help.

From this ramp, which direction should I head for some fishing?

[fishsmith]

Pick up a capt. seagulls chart from a local tackle store, that will point in the right direction. But be forewarned asking for spots has never gone over very well on this site. So if you do well, be very general in naming where you got them, or else the next time you go out, your new spot might be full.

Look foward to seeing you out there and reading you in here !!!!!!!!!!!!!1

that ramp is in a back cove of wickfor harbour. Head out of the harbour and into the bay.

You will immediately see jamestown and the bridge down the bay.

There are so many spots all over the bay. If you are unfamiliar with the area, I would highly suggest a good chart studying session or two before heading out. The spots are pretty obvious once you start studying the chart.

Thanks for help.

I wasnt trying to get anyone to devulge their secret fishing spot or anything like that.

I was just looking for some common known spots that people hit all the time. Just something as a start off point.

I am really totally new to all this. Last year I went on a shark fishing charter off of Point Judith and got hooked (crappy pun was intended). 2 weeks after that I sold my project Hunter Sailboat and bought a 21' Wellcraft V-20 project fishing boat. The boat, though not pretty, is almost ready for the water.

So basically I was just looking for the popular places everyone goes to catch a few, until I start to get the hang of this.
