May started about a week early and hasnt let up... last week was the the best end of June since '86...Still no pogies here and the blues have scattered the Macks.. and thats a good thing..big bass are back in the shallows.

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Fishing from my one spot in RI...and not to brag, just being proud... I have 15 fish over 22lbs and considering I landed only 3 fish over 20lbs last season, I am happy with my year so far. My #1 focus this year was presentation and learning the most effective ways to work plugs and so far I am being rewarded. knock on wood.

keep casting guys

Good for you Kevin.

Its been steady for me, but more slow outings and skunks recently. Had five fish last night, but all were on the small side under 30". Three nights ago had one hit and one fish about 25#. The small fish everyone seems to be looking for are out in full force where I've been fishing. This doesn't mean they are abundant, but they're quite thick in my locale. Most of them can't take an eel down they're so small.

Summer fishing is here folks. Get used to a bit slower action for a while in most cases if you're shore fishng. Be prepared for the occasional blitz though...

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
