Got the new Yamaha on Friday for Sundays trip to Waterford/Niantic.
First day the winds were calm and it made for a nice trip out to towards the point...fished in the area between the point and the bay...moved to the outer area of the point and tried a drift....back into the bay with changing tides. My 14 year old son was handling the chum pot and tying it to the anchor...he was pissed about the smell and through up...he wa..s not fishing for a while..poor kid...lost my chum pot too. I guess he didn't tie it very well....headed towards Rocky Neck state park and beached the inflatable then went for a swim...lots of people hanging out there and jumping off the cliffs into the water...it was a beautiful day...had a couple nibbles but that was it..the world seemed to all know the fishing was terrible because on the way back to the launch, not one person was out there fishing...On a beautiful Sunday..I was blown away by that. I know Red Neck warned me, but damn! Anyway, can't complain since the water was really enjoyable to move through.....one large boat with a couple guys looked like they attempted to swamp us and thought it was funny.
Should have went swimming earlier but I didn't even know that cove existed. I'll be picnicking there in the future instead of eating lunch with the kids on the water.
