I was just talking to my buddy about doing a possible tournament this year, thought it would be a fun time. I don't know the regs on teams (I will read them when I have more time) but if the 3 of us were able to team up we would probably do ok. Either way there would be a feast afterwards and a lot to talk about. I will stop by the Pier dive shop and get some more info soon. Keep in touch!

Thats cool. I would be down for that. Its true a feast would be in order. Have you be over to newport area yet? I should be down in RI this weekend. Lets go out for some stripers!! Where have you guys been going? Pete
We went to Beavertail in Jamestown this past weekend, OK vis but we have had better, and there was a killer current and a rough entry. I only saw 3 stripers, 2 were too small, and one was borderline so I didnt shoot it. Saw all 3 at once, then none after that. TONS and TONS of tautog in that area though, figures we can't shoot them right now. I think they know it rofl. My boss saw a gentlemen at Mackeral cove I think its called, he was freediving, and he got a decent size striper. They are around, just sorta scarce ocean side and in the lower bay. They are in the upper bay where the diving probably sucks. But, we should definately plan a dive trip this weekend. I wouldn't mind trying a little deeper area (~35ft) for some flatfish, and of course stripers if they come around. My boss dove off Gooseberry Island on the southern tip of Newport, said the vis had to be 35ft, so we could try there as well. Keep in touch, and throw me a PM if you want.
