Finding fish in lousy weather

Bear Point bass yesterday

Prudence Island continues to produce bass, even in yesterday's windy weather.

"Don O'Neil and I took a trip on the dark side today, abandoning the kayaks to go fishing on the Can't Imagine with Capt Billy Silvia," says Nils Christensen of Ultimate Kayak Fishing. "We had a great time with Billy and his mate chasing down stripers up to 26 pounds in some very snotty conditions. Capt Billy turned a bad weather day into a great fishing experience and put us on fish where there was not much to be found.

"Mount Hope Bay was barren and we ended up in front of Bear Point off Prudence Island drifting pogies high and low. The larger fish were on the surface and there were bluefish in the middle chopping up the bait on the way down. Thank you to Capt Billy for putting us on some nice fish today in the bad weather."
