Shore Fishing Rhode Island For Striped Bass - Spring Run 2023

The stripers are back! Did some surfcasting and was able to find a handful of active schoolie bass, they were even hitting topwater plugs. Things should only get better here in RI!

[@alecudell2962]

Another sick video. Great work Johnny will definitely have to come back to RI soon! That top water blowup was money!

[@Fish-RI]

Thanks man give me a shout if you’re back in RI!

[@werftv4580]

Very fun stuff..

[@Fish-RI]

Thanks for watching man!

[@lonellrodgers8539]

I've had my Okuma Cedros CSX for about 10 years. I friggin love that rod.

[@Fish-RI]

Dude they are awesome surf rods they are my go to

[@timconnors3211]

definetly a good plan... could also add a much larger single hook on a big split ring too. thanks for sharing dude. stay safe.

[@Fish-RI]

Yea honestly I really should swap out my trebles for singles… rainy day project. As always thanks for watching Tim!

[@tonynicoletti8161]

​@@Fish-RI test in a pool or a shallow spot, some plugs swim different with different size / kind of hooks.

[@Tog_Tastic]

Been hammering schoolies in the upper bay, pure chaos. Some guys said they saw lice but I personally haven't caught a migratory fish yet. One things I've done that I feel has been a huge improvement for my enjoyment on the water, was swapping out all the treble hooks on my plugs with inline single trailer hooks. I haven't had a single issue with hooks since doing that after I caught one in the hand.

[@Fish-RI]

Nice man! I’m willing to bet some of those were migratory seems like we are getting the first wave of fresh bass. And yea definitely want to start swapping out all my trebles they are a pain in the ass to deal with

[@nomaddamon670]

Would you say you’re at the same hookup ratio with the inlines as you had with trebles? Any negative diffidence worth mentioning?

[@Tito_Gtv]

I been going for 3 days now and it seems there’s not a lot of keepers but it’s gonna get better yesterday was horrible though (May 3)

[@datle4965]

I recently just started watching your videos and fell in love with fishing. where would you recommend for a person to fish as a beginner by the shore in rhode island

[@sandierads4223]

Rocky Point off the pier or Fort Adams off the rocks. Enjoy!

[@danieltouch3572]

@johnny, you’re close enough to make a trip to the Cape Code canal right? Thatd be interesting to see you hook into some monsters in the current there.

[@Fish-RI]

Yea I’ve fished the canal a handful of times with varying degrees of success lol. I think I’ll plan a trip for this season it’s not too far of a drive for me

[@jessegraham1004]

Would you mind giving directions to Boston to any fish you happen to see? Thanks for the video.

[@Fish-RI]

I'll try sending them your way lol

[@TheQwertymon]

😂😂😂

[@kenmccarthyfishing]

That ending could of been really bad, I glad your ok and I agree, I feel having two tremble hooks is just to dangerous, I’ve considered just putting a single hook on the back,especially after ending up in the ER last year after catching a huge Bluefish and battling getting the hook out,Jonny any recommendations on a single replacement hook??🤷

[@Fish-RI]

Yea treble hooks are nasty… I really should get most of them swapped out. I like the VMC in-line single hooks they are solid

[@carlosgvfishing3922]

Good morning friend, I live in Rhode Island I fish with a kayak but I don't recognize this place. where exactly is it please
