What makes RI's notorious hot spot for early season stripers so good?

Yes indeed

The rocks get warm in the sun no matter where the wind is coming from. But many fewer fish are caught when it's not the RIGHT wind. Therefore I think the reason it's a hot spot when the right wind is blowing, is because the right wind is blowing...and trapping schools of bait in front of my favorite rock.
