Adventure Charters Rhode Island Fishing Pictures 2009

Photos from various 2009 trips on Adventure Charters.

The season has been great, with many bass being caught on our Rhode Island trips as well as bluefish and flounder.  We have to date caught well over 1,600 bass during this season.  We have been very busy for the month of August, sailing every day.  September was pretty good but had a lot of windy days.  November Tautog fishing has been very good and the end of the season will be coming soon.

Many of our fish were caught on plugs or soft plastic baits, we almost didn't need to have trolling rods on the boat (which is fine by me).  We caught real numbers of fish on each trip making for a very exciting time all season long.
