Amazing vid and congrats on the cows! I think I need to change my plans to RI this weekend instead of the cape.

[@FishLabTackle]

That rod and the ITX is a nice combo! Great video Jonny!

thanks man I was due for some big bass on the yak

[@hooper4581]

Outstanding what a blast Great fishing going on in your neck of the woods. Having a great bluefish run here on south shore king island. Some stripers mixed in but not like that ! Awesome 👏

[@PoloRed]

Wow!! Cant wait to catch a tank myself! Good Video!

[@blefebvre430]

Loving your videos my man! I was down there today at the west beach road breachway. No luck lol

[@TriboroFishing]

Awesome fishing bro

[@77bustoff]

Nice fish Johnny . Your releases were fine those fish took right off 👍

[@Wreck-it_Ralph]

Good to see some big ones moving in. I went out this morning on the ma/ri border hoping to find some pogies to live line but didn't see any.

[@Captain-Seasick]

That was awesome. Good for u. Enjoyed the video .

[@Fish-RI]

thanks for watching man

[@shawnboisclair3696]

Awesome stripers, that kayak is the ticket to some big fish. looking forward to seeing some shore fishing action. I remember night fishing with eels, hate eels but love the results.

[@Fish-RI]

eels are amazing yet suck at the same time

[@joegrande4848]

You caught some tanks brother awesome job 👏 👍 😎

[@matthewjmedeiros]

Just found your page. Great video. Just picked up myself a fishing kayak as my Army retirement gift. Can’t wait to hit the Bay. Added bonus working on Newport Naval Base

[@Fish-RI]

thats awesome man thanks for watching. I actually launch out of the newport navy base sometimes, maybe ill see you out there

[@michaelwblade]

Wow that’s what I’m talking about! I’m definitely going down to Newport next week with my kayak

[@Fish-RI]

good luck out there man

[@GreenMeanie101]

That Okuma stuff is holding up to some beast.

[@Fish-RI]

oh yea I certainly put it to the test with these fish

[@WD-41469]

Nice work dude

[@Charactermatters650]

Ha ha just subbed your station - old fisherman here - your a hoot kid - love the running commentary, especially when you get on your own case. Lived in Gansett for a time many years ago - would love to get back to Rhody to fish. Tube and worm is the WAY - no worm, no fish. Best tubes by Butchie Baits up in Mass. - they last a lifetime.

[@Fish-RI]

Thanks man! Born and raised in RI myself I love it here. The tube and worm is killer the stripers can’t resist it

[@fishnotize3144]

Congrats on the Monsters.

[@petesayia]

Congrats dude. Best part for me was the quick healthy releases on those cows. Big respect

[@Fish-RI]

thanks man. It's always great to see big bass swim off strong

[@pichan78orellana90]

Nice catch man. Where do you normally go? I been looking for spots to go with my kayak

[@dustingoesfishing9149]

Good Stuff bro! 🎣

[@Fish-RI]

thanks man I'm sure I'll see you out there soon

[@brucedemoranville4577]

Awesome bass. Perfect fishy morning.

[@Fish-RI]

The second I got out there I was like yep this is a fishy morning

[@brucedemoranville4577]

Smoke on the water and dropping barometric pressure is a recipe for success.

[@fishingwithvinny8369]

Nice job 👍🏼

Hi. I live in NJ and have a Native Slayer Max. Where in RI are you kayak fishing stripers? Thanks for your videos.

[@garykoss508]

Excellent video! I’m looking to upgrade my paddle kayak to peddle kayak. What do you recommend ? Thnx.

[@kellycumberland3831]

Nice video! What body of water are you fishing?

[@DMD81773]

This makes want to do some night time chunking on the boat. I anchor up in a spot where you catch alot of your tog for bass

[@rhodeislandplumber5912]

Hey Jonny nice video, nothing better than a trip full of cows !! I’m a RI local, me and my son are heading out of wickford tomorrow morning any areas u recommended, I got a late start this season and he’s getting shoulder surgery this week he’ll be down for the count for the summer would like him to get some nice action!

[@timbertuggy2398]

Built my own tube with a circle hook. Worked mint. The traditional hooks work great too. No gut hooks here

[@Tdogz5o8]

Damn dude you’re a beast

[@kevintoro3284]

You the fuckin man!! Always look forward in watching your videos. Good stuff man keep them coming

[@Fish-RI]

appreciate that man! more vids on the way

[@johnny_fins]

We had a wave down south of mid 20s up to 46 about 10 days ago. Been a little bit of a lull since then , so I imagine you're seeing those right now and going to continue to see them through the end of June. Would love to bring the Hobie up there and fish with you when things tap out in NJ

[@Fish-RI]

yea it definitely seems like there has been a push of big fish around here lately

[@johnny_fins]

@@Fish-RI had a different wave of fish show up this morning with sea lice on them. Must've came in from offshore. They're headed north now and they were all complete slobs. I'm guessing you'll see them in 10 days-2 weeks

[@burneverybridge]

What kind of line you use? Looking to get into togs and black bass

[@markbassett4394]

Providence is hot

[@LeahSydelleNonis]

This in the bay or open ocean?

[@thecomebackkid1292]

Hey what kind of rod do you use. Medium heavy with fast tip? How many lb braid and leader ? Just getting into this.. great vid

[@Fish-RI]

thanks man. The link is in the video description for the rod and reel I was using. 7 foot medium heavy Okuma SRT Inshore elite. 30 lb braid with a 50 pound flouro leader

[@fishingwithvinny8369]

I am waiting for those fish come to Cape Cod

[@Jon_Mule]

What depth were you catching/markin them at? Also how far from shore? Plan on making a trip this week..

[@Fish-RI]

I think this was in 30 feet, I was a mile or so out

[@brap242818]

damn solid.. wish my Tx, Lake Texoma bass got like that! You got a lot of rules up there. TX you can catch anyway you want as long as not snagging.

[@Fish-RI]

oh yea stripers are heavily regulated up here but for good reason

[@johnbickle8457]

Very nice stripers.

In san Francisco bay we haven't seen a bass that big in 30 years thanks

30 yrs ago stripers that big were pretty routine in the SF Bay Area

The best content as always buddy! I’ll be going out near Watch hill this Sunday and Monday hoping to set the hook in a few decent striper and blues

[@Fish-RI]

thanks man good luck out there

You might not want to go to watch hill bud. They’re ticketing people fishing the lighthouse area.

[@vangjackthao]

@@mattbobsong680 why? I’ve been going there for years, parking at the lighthouse. Even when cops were there they never bothered me and told me to go park elsewhere and walk in. I was just there last week without an issue. Is this new?

I been wanting to catch one like that and feel that rush.. I caught 27" 25" nothing big but wow I can't imagine hitting a big one like that.., been fishing all my life but ocean water like 13 15 years and never seen one in my pole that big.. I do more pier fishing and cut bait.

the big ones certainty put up one hell of a fight

@@Fish-RI I bet hopefully one day

[@dylanbruskie9995]

I'm 25 and have been fishing Rhode Island my whole life from the shore. Can anyone help me out with a good spot for stripers from the shore? I don't fish past E.G, definitely not warwick. I prefer southern ri if anyone has any ideas. P.S I pack out what I pack in and can't stress that enough.

[@blefebvre430]

If you find a good spot help a brother out. I drive down from western Massachusetts need some tips. Thanks
