Rhode Island Fishing Reports
JOHN HANECAK-Rhode Island
September 21, 2020 - 13:20:07
While most Rhode Islanders right now have their sights set on the likes of striped bass, bluefish and even false albacore, dont overlook bottom fishing if theres time to kill between blitzes. Early fall action on blackfish has been very good, and the black sea bass and porgy fishing has been great all season. Cod fishing has also been quite good and the late fall fishing around Block Island if often some of the best of the season. If you cant get out on a boat of your own there are plenty of local 6-pack and party boats ready and able to get you on the action!
