updated 5/11/2008 Sunday May 11 2008 Wind North 10-15 Cold 43 Deg Tide low 8:00am Fished with Dan and Phil today they are local high school kids and they love to fish. They came along last year with there third friend Matt. Family obligation kept Matt on the beach we did miss him he brings a sense of humor with him and it is a pleasure to have him on board. The three boys are avid fishermen and they have good skills. Dan started the day of and we brought many nice fish to the boat today. Most fish were on top water plug and a few on the fly rod. The fishing was a little off due to the cold front. We saw no birds working today, we did all the working and it paid off. The weather has been cold for this time of the year and the fishing is a little off but there are plenty of fish around . You just have to look for them. I will have the boys out again in a week or so. It is my pleasure to take them out. They are very respectful and polite. Who can ask for more than that. Take a kid fishing. I will be out this week Look for my report Until Then Tight Lines
Wed May 7 2008 Beautiful day Fished today with a good friend Mark Kralian, We have fished together for over ten years and it has been a while since we were in the same boat. I convinced Mark to join me today with the report I received from another Capt . The fish had entered the bay with a decent push of fish. on Monday. Things do change from day to day so you always have to have a plan. I did and I stuck with it we caught fish most of the day in many different places. When we hooked one fish most of the time we would take 6- 10 before we had to look on. The fishing was not hot and heavy but it was steady. We took 40-50 Stripers on the fly today no very big fish but Mark did lose what look like a legal fish. Most were 18-22 inches with big ones measuring 24-25 . It was great and I think we will have a great season. I have dates open still in May so lets hook up. Until Then Tight lines

The weather was cold and raw but it didn't dampen the spirits of the group 16 fly fishermen showed up and 6 boats left the dock at 6:00am. Every one caught fish and the a great time had by all.

Look for my report Until Then Tight Lines May 1, 2008 Narragansett Bay Let the games begin, I put the boat in the water around 8:30 this morning with the Temp around 40 degrees. The Mercury turned over immediately and with minutes I had a line in the water. My game plan was simple find fish I had heard of the small fish in the rivers . The bay was holding bait there should be fish. Within the first hour I was on structure that held a few fresh fish. They were in the 18 inch range with light tackle they were a great start.
I switched to the fly rod and took another half
dozen with the big fish measuring 23 inches. All fish had
lice on them which means they were not your hold over
schoolies . The big fish will be here soon with the amount
of bait around it should be a great spring. I will be out again
over the weekend look for my report. Until Then Tight Lines |
