It would be nice at the more dangerous popular spots along the coast if they had life rings available. Fortunately, some POS would steal them.

I've found myself in harm's way, a few times out there at night. Today, I think of my family, and I'm a bit more sensible out there.
This is sad news, indeed. Lets all be careful, my friends.

the east wall is one of the most uinderrated spots in RI as far as being dangerous. People who do not respect it WILL get into trouble. I as well as my partner have been BLOWN off it. It really is no place for "amateurs". Especially in a heave.

Jay, you got that right! About 6 years ago I took a nasty spill out there and broke my elbow.

I remember you talking about that steve.I fish there often and almost never see people out there and the few I do see have no respect for the dangers. They try to get out there with no studded footwear.Asking for trouble,one fall out there can be your last.I'am not as afraid about going in the drink as much as falling on the jetty itself. There are some long falls out there.I hope the fellow will be ok.
