Bay is Loaded

[eelman]

Acres of Bass have invaded Narragansett Bay and this looks to be a banner year once again, fish as large as 34 inches ore here in force with blitzs occuring daily now, there is plenty of bait around to keep these fish fat and happy and staying for a long while! 2008 is going to be fantastic! These pics are from yesterday, thought the Jellyfish pic came out great! watch out for them......Go get um!

I want to get out on Saturday,,, how do you think Fridays storm is going to effect the striper fishing on Saturday?

Good question. And how has Newport been fishing? Thinking about giving it a go this weekend to start the season off.

I fish mostly in the Sakonnet River and I've been doing ok,not awesome but ok in several spots in L.Compton so I would imagine Newport would have fish.I've also had a few fish from several areas on the Portsmouth side of the river too as I'll stop on my way home.

99% of the houses I work on/in are in Newport and I've yet wet a line there.Go figure.

They look nasty. How dangerous are they?
