Things have really picked up this week on the fishing front! The recent sunny days have warmed the water, and it's great to see fish activity all around Rhode Island. We're seeing a good mix of sizes, from smaller schoolies up to impressive fish over 30 inches.
Looking at the tide at the breachway, the next few evenings seem particularly promising, especially with the end of the outgoing tide coinciding with sundown.
We've also noticed a few worm hatches this week where fish have been present. It looks like these hatches will soon be expanding from the more secluded coves to the open edges of the ponds.
Finally, we've been getting some positive reports on tautog, with customers having success both from the shore and by boat. There have also been a few reports of cod in deeper waters.
