"Freshwater bass fishing has been touch and go," says Anthony Palumbo, the traveling angler.

"The 80-degree days and 50-degree nights have given the fish lockjaw," he reports. "Small finesse baits are the way to go -- for me at least. Fished very slowly using light weights has worked OK. This forces you to go slower than normal. The deeper water has definitely been the best. Keep an eye on your fish finder and look for drop offs.

"Gorton Pond in Warwick has cooled off considerably. The fish are schooling a bit more which is a sign of an early fall pattern.

"Mashapaug Pond in Cranston was touch and go as well.

"Out of all the spots we hit this week, Twin Rivers in Lincoln was about the best, but the bite didn't start until almost dark and lasted for about an hour.

"It should begin to pick up a bit with the fall on it's way."
