Projo Fishing: HotBytes |
Fishing for fluke and striped bass has been excellent aboard Point Judith's party boats. The Seven Bs had just stopped on the fishing grounds when Chris Lambert landed the 31-pound striper in the top photo, reports Ray Thimas. Then young Kenny Queada of Providence hooked the 29-pounder in the lower photo. The boat was fishing off Block Island, and the bass nailed eels, Ray reports. Yesterday, Frank Blount, owners of the Frances Fleet reported: "Despite the torrential downpours and wild weather to start the day, once the rain abated the fish turned on and the customers aboard managed to put over 90 good size fluke and sea bass in the boat. Some anglers limited and others were close to it. Even tough weather cannot seem to hold this blazing fishery down! "Capt. Don reported yesterday morning's half-day trip went quite well despite some awful weather. Anglers had some nice size fluke and a few sea bass plus a bunch of shorts. "Capt. Rich reported a great day of fluking on the fluke-sea bass trip today. A modest group of anglers brought at least 80 nice fluke to the nets today. Very few sea bass today. Biggest fish was around 9 pounds."
