Fishing_for: stripers/blue fish
Boat: n/a
captain: n/a

Report:
harbors and ponds have been active lately with schools of snapper blues sizes from just a few inches to, on avereage, 2-3lbs but larger blues are coming in close proving to be a good fight for light rods with 10-17lb test. large freshwater spinning gear seems to be just enough to successfully land a few of the larger blues that as of today are just begining to show up

p.s. if you fish the southern rhode island area and your seeing big bass please e-mail me with tides, times, and locations
