Schoolies arrive at RI shore

Finally the schoolies are in. Schoolies have been caught in significant numbers along the shore. Most of the action started early this week. Most fish are in the 14-20 inch range with an occasional keeper. They are hitting white cocahoe minnows usually with a 3/8 oz white jig head. Light tackle in the 12lb class range is also the preferred equipment. Most of the action is occuring from late afternoon (5:00) till sunset. The west wall seems to be the most consistent spot.

This weekend looks good for the bay. Nice overcast showery weather is predicted. I'm going to take advantage of the weather and give things a try. In the bay wildeye shad are usually very effective.
