Where the fish at?

Fishing was sketchy on so many levels yesterday. Long and short, no fish -- no bites! So the fish with my name on them are still up in Maine? What water temps in MA and RI should I be looking for to start getting excited? I'm ready to start hooking worms for kivvers, just so I can feel what it feels like to catch a fish again.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

Don't get antsy. It's real slow everywhere. I fished 6 hours Sat night/Sun AM from Watch Hill to Black Point in RI. I 26" and 1 about 15 lbs.
Friday night skunkero. last night Skunked again. Total for 3, days 12 hours in the surf. I short, 1, 15 lb. pretty poor for Sept.
Also I get lots of reports from friends on the SoCo shore and everyone was real slow this weekend. We surmise the big heave the week before had a lot to do with it.

No boat, back in the suds.

Not a lot up there either.....fishing seems to be slow everywhere.

It'll turn on; last Aug we had similar conditions (big heave)
I was looking at notes... right after the water cleared after the 3rd storm or so we got into fish big numbers and decent size... you remember where P
it just happens to be a month later this year

Rivers in Maine ain't so bad

If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.
