Charlestown RI? update

Well a good time was had. I arrived late weds. night., about 11.30. I said to my bil, lets take a ride to the breachway? It was nasty out there, very high waves and windy. I only brought a small rod with us as my bigger rods needed new line and I was going to have them spooled at the tackle shop in the morning. There were about six guys on the rocks with us. I put on a smiling bill and tell my bil here take a few shots with this. On his third cast the rod is bent over and the line is coming off the reel! The fish made three nice runs on him and he starts to get it to the front of the breachway after about twenty minutes. The other guys want to help land the fish,(remember Barts advice on the korkers), a huge wave breaks on the end of the breachway. Knocks my bil on his butt and takes out two other guys. One if them gets his ankle caught in the rocks and may have broken it! Lost the fish in the rocks on the end of the breachway. Took about a 1/2 hour to get the fella back to his car, (Shawn if you read this I hope you are doing well), no more fishing that night.

Thurs. night was a wash out, Fri at sunset we ran into a school of small bluefish and had a great time with some poppers,(creek chubs), and we both caught a few fish each. Nothing else after that. Sat night was very quiet. All in all he had a great time and stretched the line and bent the rod. It was a success. Thank you guys for the input.

Vic

Nice that ya had a good time. That's too bad about the fella with the hurt leg. One has to be careful out there. And even more careful than that.

Be encouraging, not discouraging
