Psssh, all you guys with your motorboats for tuna fishing... ;-)
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/23/sports/23fishing.html?_r=1I'm going to be out in Rhode Island (Newport) next fall, looking forward to doing some Striper/Blue fishing. Never done much saltwater fishing, but I do remember fishing from a pier with my brother when my family took a week's vacation at Bar Harbor in Maine. We threw diamond jigs using 10# spinning tackle. I remember catching the first fish, which felt like an 18" LMB and turned out to be a small mackerel.
