I know you're waiting with baited breath. Busy! I hit a popular north shore beach a couple of weeks ago with my daughter and caught a mess of bass on sea worms. We had a good time. Last week I hit Plum Island and nabbed 4, two keepers on jigs. That's been about it. I haven't been able to fish a lot. At least I'm catching when I go. Fishing with Captain Corey again next week.
Heard a few rumblings that fish were taken mid week so I took Friday off and hit the salty shores of Plum Island. For the first time in many years I did not get a jump on things by fishing RI early. I was in Newport a couple of weeks back on business ad brought a rod but wound up aborting mission as my early season spots were weeded up. Back to Plum Island. Bucktailed up a half dozen bass including one small keeper. All were feisty and released healthy. ...

That reel is the one piece of equipment I wouldn't want to try and ...
I shit you not. Check their facebook page if you don't believe me. This is the best news the cheap....errrrr.....thrifty surfcaster has heard in years. This is the finest and most reliable surf fishing reel that has ever hit the suds that costs (way) less than 700 bucks or so. I'll be buying 2 or 3 706's. That will carry me through the rest of my life, I expect. Penn says ~$200
Following a quiet season last year I am hoping for better this year. Am going to get after it again, God willing. Plan to take some time off from work this spring to fish and hopefully hit some spots i dont fish enough like Newport, the Canal and so on. Have been working too much.
