I fished yesterday on my way home, and thought I would just throw a couple casts, because I had only 30minutes in between meetings. Next thing I knew I had a monster on my line. As I pull this beautiful bluefish in it managed to snap my brand new tica rod. It was a monster I measured it at 38.5". Little did I know after filleting this fish that the state record was 39". I would have pulled a fall river special and stretched the lip. What a fight.
Anyways anyone saying there is no fish in Rhode Island must not be using a hook

. not trying to be a punk, but I am just letting you know there is awesome fishing in Rhody right now. It has been lights out for a few weeks now, and the water temp is holding strong at 54-55. so there is still a week or two left.
This is only picture I managed, but to put it in perspective the pencil popper in its mouth is 7" long.
