This sucks. Quaker Lane was the best local (for me) B&T. Good people there, I hope they rebuild..

Sorry to here this , A R.I. land mark gone..............I'm sure Mike will rebuild fast, He's the biggest in R.I.................

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

Just got back from taking a peak. The building is standing, I guess the cinder block constrution prevented it from falling down, I expected to see only the chiminey standing so I was surprised,but a peak inside and its gutted, according to the owner , a 100% loss . The windows are all boarded up and there is a big sticker on the front sayin uninhabitable! I would imagine that building will have to come down and be rebuilt.It must have been like an oven in there with all that plastic! Anyway they will be back !

Mike B has had a bad year personally and now with the business going up in flames. My thought and prayers are with him.
I have been going to Quaker lane for 30 years and it has always been a B&T where you got the straight scoop and an honest deal on anything you needed.

No boat, back in the suds.

i cant believe this.

my thoughts and prayers will go out to all the quakerlane staff.


You guys are right, Quaker lane was a RI fishing landmark.


There were some beautiful classic surf plugs hanging on that wall



What a shame.
