Projo Fishing: HotBytes |
"The first report of an albie caught in the Coast Guard channel is in," reports Chris Willi of Block Island Fish Works. "Bonito are still being picked off here and there, mostly blind casting with small, Yozuris, Pt Judes, and Mario's. "The Southwest Ledge was like glass last week for about four days and we took advantage of it from the small boats, fishing light tackle and flies, catching plenty of bass in the 20-pound range and big blues on both topwater and deep. Near shore topwater action has slowed a bit, but fish are still taking swimmers and soft plastics. "No offshore report other than it's very slow. Our good friend Chris Benin of Old Harbor Outfitters made a run to Chatham and landed three bluefin up to 150 pounds. "Don't forget: The Block Island Inshore Fishing Tournament is Sept. 19, 20, 21."
