Easy guys...Redlite is just having a little fun! Cuttyhunk is a great place to fish but Redlite was right....its no walk in the park! Be prepared to work your butts off for fish! As he said its hit or miss so be prepared! I have been over there and stayed about 15 times and we have had some great trips and had a few so-so trips! Sometimes the fish just jump out of the water at you and others......you spend hours casting miles of shoreline with nary a hit! Thats why they call it fishing! However it was always worth the trip especially if you go with a few good folks as I do! Also the flavor and history of the island makes it all worthwhile! The great people who work and live on the island and at the Fishing Club also make for a wonderful trip! Be prepared to walk miles and miles of softball and bowling ball sized rocks.....shin splints are a guarantee as are leg cramps if you do not stay hydrated! Bring your food as there are no stores over there save for a small general store which opens 2 times a day for 2 hours a whack! Gotta pack your booze too as no liquor stores on the island.....no kidding! Bring extra tip tops for your rod in case you have an issue.....broken tip tops with no replacements can ruin a trip! I usually bring 2-3 rods and 4-5 reels. Plugs are highly recommended especially topwater plugs......spooks, pencils, needles. Swimmers are great when the rockweed allows....if you have a wetsuit you can bypass the weed and fish swimmers to your turkish delight! Many like eels and/or rubber! Bring a camera too.......its a special place and you will want pics to remember your trip!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I say give it a shot Rocco...I was over there a few years back to install some granite. We were stuck for a few hours waiting for the granite to get there on the barge (we went over on the Seahawk), I wish I brought a stick along for a few casts. The whole place looked fishy. I'm sure local knowledge would help but I'd bet you'll find some fish if you put your time in.
Good luck!
