Eben, I'm gonna drag your butt up here a couple times to show you how a reef/boulderfield can get changed drastically. I bet I got half a dozen requests from Luds, Clogston and a few others asking how a certain spot had changed over the course of a couple noreasters. Hmmm, do we want to show him where all this fast current is, boys???

true, but a boulder the size of a VW bug isnt going to roll 40 feet or disapear. my point is that if there is a rock pile about 30 feet out in 10 feet of water, it will always be there, the rocks may roll, but i dont think that they would vannish.. of course im talking about RI where we dont have major tides like north of the cape and the canal.
I fish places like this from time to time.. not much changes here. lobster gear is about the only thing that changes. |

Our boulders don't move, they just get buried by all the gravel from the the adjacent rocky beach. Last year there was atleast 6' of gravel covering the rocks. Winter NE storms bury it and the steady S/SW of spring and summer usually digs it out. Last time I was up it looked pretty promissing for this time of year and hopefully things will turn on earlier than last year at that spot. If not, its a big ocean and I won't waste as much time waiting for it to turn on as I did last year  |
