Little Compton Thursday PM

[RRabiner]

Hit the beach this afternoon to see just how far I could throw a plug with this wind behind me.

Some of the eastern points were just too breezy to try - but the southerly points were absolutely fine

Early on - not much on top - but could pick them up using some storm shads -

Not as much fun as top water - but it kept me busy for a while

Birds were working about 1/4 mile off the beach - and slowly started to move towards one of the cove - when all of a sudden it just lit up

Every bird in the area was there - and every bass for miles seemed to have showed up.

( Note to self - when all hell breaks loose - relax - performance anxiety cost me one cast )

Had non stop bass from about 28 - 36 inches all to myself for about 1/2 hr - when it tapered off - and they moved back off shore

As things quieted back down - i continued to walk the beach - and cast to the various rock outcroppings - picking up smaller - but fiesty bass every couple of casts -

Had multiple doubles - one on the plug - one on the teaser -throughout the time

Watched an absolutely beautiful moonrise - while still catching fish ( Peter G- trying to poke holes in your moon theory ) and called it quits about 6:30 with the birds still working off shore -

Looks like more wind for the weekend - going to be rocking and rolling out there - and I am heading to ACK to fish ??

rrabiner,
Couple of questions from a novice:
1. How do you rig the teaser?
2. What do you use for a teaser?

You have encouraged me to look at the beaches this weekend.

Fish on!

Ya gotta love those times.I fished the opposite side that morning.Picked up a few.I kinda like fishing with the wind in my face.

Soon enough I'll be fishing the opposite side more often as I will be a Tivertonite by the end of the month.
