One of the best parts about living in Rhode Island is the access to some of the best fishing in the world. In my opinion, it is (or should be) as much of a destination fishing spot as any other place. State fishing pride aside, I managed to get out fishing in a rented boat for some fluke (summer flounder) this past week. It was a fantastic outing with basically non-stop action of black sea bass and fluke. The black sea bass season is still closed until July 2nd, but it still kept the trip sporty instead of a slog. We managed an 18.25" fluke and a (my personal best) 26" fluke. Here are some photos:
