| I landed this schoolie last night on a bone colored Daiwa SP Minnow. The nighttime action has been far better than the daytime action in the last week. |
We've hit a late October lull. All along the oceanfront fishermen are wondering what happened to our outstanding daytime fishing which saw surface blitzes on a daily basis throughout much of October. The last week has been slow. The bait seems to be gone for the most part, and the fish seem to have left also. While I have caught just about no fish in the daytime in the last week, I have been steadily picking up fish after dark so they are still around in good numbers. I've been getting them after dark on Cocahoe minnows and Daiwa SP Minnows. The bone colored SP Minnow has been my best color.
Don't think for a minute we are nearing the end. There are still a lot of fish north of us and a lot of fish in 'Gansett Bay. That is all coming toward the RI oceanfront in November. The consistent fishing should hold up until at least Thanksgiving.
