Another foggy Sunday

Rick and his brother Zac made the short but dangerous crossing of the Rhode Island border to go in search of the elusive striped bass. We did a lot of moving and picked up a handful of schoolies bass and one nice blackfish on a fly. With all of the Sunday traffic out there we […]

The early angler gets the fish

Wednesday morning brought Dr. Jeff up the always dangerous Rt.95. We left the dock bright and early to catch the end of the ebb tide. It took Jeff two casts to put the first fish in the boat. It was a good bite till the tide died out then we went exploring. While out and […]

You fish like a girl but that’s because I practice

I practiced on Thursday and caught this one on Friday. It was 27#s on the Boga but not quite as big as Gail’s the day before. For a weekday we had people stemming, trolling, drifting and running around. We had a pretty good morning with fly rods. We even caught a couple of fish in […]

Fun in the fog

Gail and I left the dock at the crack of 0830 to catch the right tide. We had about 50 yards of visibility at the start. It took us about two casts for the first hook up and then it was pretty steady for the next few hours. If any of you are thinking about […]

Tuesday on the briney

Today brought Gary up the long but ever dangerous drive up Rt.95 from SW Connecticut. We left early and found the fish waiting. They were pretty scattered today so we had to work a bit harder. We had a pretty steady bite until lunch had come and gone. Another fun day with a good friend. […]

Slow start with a big finish

Travis and Reagan made the long trek east for an evening on the water. We left the dock and stopped at a few spots that are usually productive on an incoming tide but not yesterday. We continued on to head for the area that I had some luck on Friday. We were early for the […]

Back at it

Yesterday I forced myself to get up early to catch the right tide. The fish were waiting for me and they were hungry. I managed a handful between 10 and 18 lbs. and that was enough for me. It was a bit on the breezy side and the tide was ripping. Good times. I have […]

Getting closer

The flys are all organized with new ones added. Bucktails are tied and lures are all set. All we have left to do is to get the boat ready and put it in the briney. I replaced two spinning reels with new Shimano Stradic 4000’s. I think that my spin anglers will be pretty happy […]

Happy 2026

We are getting near the middle of February and we’ve been busy. All of our spinning gear is good to go. A bunch of new bucktails are in the box and new hooks rigged up for the Albie Snax. I sorted all the flies and am in the process of filling the gaps in the […]

That’s a wrap

Gail and I made an early trip out this past Sunday morning. We beat the sun and wind for a change. There were very few bass around but we did find a bunch of hickory shad and a few good sized bonito. With this weeks weather forecast we decided to call it a year. The […]
