Block Island turns on

A 23-pounder aboard C Devil II off Block Island
As a follow-up to yesterday's HotBytes report, Chris Willi of Block Island FishWorks, reports:
"Like I said, it should turn on any time, and it did on the west side for a morning bite of about an hour for the guys on the fly. Fathers Day must be close because it's always good for Fathers Day."
Pete Beuth, first mate aboard the C Devil II, reports that his captain, Kelly Smith, has been finding fish off Block Island.
"Fishing has been great so far with many of our first dozen or so trips limiting out on striped bass, or close to it, and a few nice fluke as well," he says. "We have been fishing off of Block Island, jigging parachute jigs for the most part. As you can see, 11-year-old Chris is quite excited to land that 23-pound striper."
