For sale: 10' MH Tsunami Trophy II (Tackle Direct link) only fished a handful of times. Some cosmetic dings (see image). Fishes like new, just don't need anymore. Payment: $90 PayPal, Venmo, Cash Delivery: This rod is listed as pick up only, but I would be willing to travel to meet up/deliver up to 30 mins away from Newport, RI. Shipping would be around $40 (not really worth it for a $90 rod). Images: Model Dings

It's seaweed city. Tough conditions, but managed one striper this evening. Might start fluking this week.
-
lol reporting on fish other people catch
-
32 striped ones caught today from 24-30" on the island. Left them biting. Edit: over the span of 2 hours
-
This wind is killer. Been battling the wind and weeds all month. Found some clean lanes and got a couple slots on the island this week.
-
Osprey are at the beaches on Aquidneck. Saw seagulls getting herring on Saturday.
-
None of those bluefish, but I had a slot on top water out front Saturday, then a dink and 2 blowups Sunday. Windy.

A fast and relatively light reel is not necessarily required, but Albies are the fish of a thousand casts, so something light which can also burn it in fast is highly preferred so you don't get pooped out after 20 casts.
-
You will want a fast reel. 40" per turn or more imo.
-
no fish in RI

First outing for me this year was yesterday. Tried some corners. Probably another week or two before seeing anything here. Edit: first outing out front; been catching all year
-
Saw the same thing, in what was probably the same stretch of water, earlier on Saturday. Almost did more birdwatching than fishing.
-
Peepers loud at Sachuest today.
-
Saw osprey yesterday and the day before. No peepers yet. No herring out front yet to my knowledge, but I'll be cruising.

I also took advantage of the abnormally warm Wednesday picking up two. 12 months of bass redemption this year. Missed only September in 2021, but I did have black sea bass.

Great discussion and personal experiences. Thanks a lot, guys! I will fish it with the dressed siwash and see how I, and more importantly the fish, will like it.

That is the question. I dressed this hook with full intentions to clip the business end off for use as a tail flag on this spook. Before I do, I wanted to see what everyone's thoughts on tail hooks were. I typically fish plugs with a tail hook, but can't recall many fish caught on the tail. I have also read that the tail hook only serves as a way for bigger fish to lever themselves free. Would you clip it or leave it?

Nice bass. Caught my first white perch this year, too. I wasn't prepared to keep any fish, but another guy at the spot seemed very, very happy to take it.
