Did anyone fish today? I did. ha ha. Went to point Judith, Salt Pond, breakwall. Trailered my boat back to Newport, just to have some jerk run into my boat while it was on the trailer. Said he did not see me towing anything. Of course he didn't, how could he, he must of had his head up his ass. The launched at Fort Adams, fished until 7:00, and NADA. Not a bite, nothing. Nothing on the fish finder at all. Did get to check out my new electronics. The side imaging thing is un real. Just like looking at a black a white, 3-D, picture. Seen a sunken barge, and you could make it out so clear. Then, loaded up the boat, just to have an Eviromental police officer waiting at my trailer to do a safety check on my boat for about 45 minutes. My God, get a life. Gavce me a written warning too. So, not a bad day, nobody died!!! It came close though with the EPA guy. Ha ha.

After JimmySly's post I had to add a poll to this thread.

Tsunami Shads Vs. Cocohoe Minnows

After the other day I know which way I'm voting

Seriously Though, both will get the job done when it comes to schoolies. I just can't wait for some Jumpin' Minnow action.

I know this is late but I just joined and have been reading a bunch of posts.

For early schoolies I like to use small Hopkins or other tin with a bucktail.

Second favorite would be a small white grub or fin s shad with a light jig head.

Haven't fished in RI early in the season but those were killers on the cape.
