Not getting anything to speak of Matt. Its been slow for me.

In my spare time I'm posting responses to various threads declaring the fishing is over for large numbers of large fish...

Give it a couple more outings, don't throw it in just yet...guys(not me) are still getting some decent single fish here and there.I'll be coming out of retirement a couple more times this year...

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

Thats all a scam; your trying to discourage anyone to free up rocks!

Actually I might come down your way next week. I haven't fished gansett since last year. Kinda miss it. Got a bunch of fish late season there in the past. Think it was the night after Halloween a couple years ago. You know where on the dropping tide.

It was a dinkfest for me the other night in that 7 mile river to our south in the heavy wind. The small fish had invaded a hole I fish and were voracious. Just no size to the fish at all. Saw a guy cruise past under the light with a decent bass on his cruiser.

But, I think Backbeach is right. The majority of the bass have slid through already. You may find an isolated pocket of good fish that got delayed or hung up feeding on a good bait source on the way south, but you have to be there at the right place at the right time to intercept them.

I still have a couple trips in me before I hang it up. Probably one more ditch trip and a deep SoCo trip on the new moon.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
