Fish to be had if you put in the effort. I've gotten into decent fish (20# plus)three out of my last four trips. Dropped my best fish of the year last week due to stupidity(tight drag and opened up a hook) but the good sized fish are at least available. I've hit them in both Mass and RI. No wetsuit needed either.

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

Just kiddin'...glad to hear you're hittin' 'em big

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

There are some real nice fish around if you put in the time, both on the beach front and inside the river.. smaller stuff on the outside on sand eels..

A good run is better than a bad stand!
