tell me what you would like to know, I happen to be a year round resident on the island and can find things out about any 4x4 access info for you.

The fishing there is great. Here's some advice. What ever you do stay away from tall, red haired, hippie looking, humanoid type creatures that can sometimes be seen scrummaging the shore lines after dark.

Hi Al - haven't been there in a few years but access was good and then you could essentially get two different stickers for the Island. While not necessary, some of the better spots are accessible with the 4X4 and pass...

If you want to blend in as a tourist, fish an 8' Honey Lami with a 6500SS flipped upside down - a/k/a Backwinding

I fished the island once back in 1998 and I don't have much to offer access-wise. But what I can tell you to get your juices flowing, is that I went 4th of July - July 10 and the fishing was good... with several fish in 20's... but everyone I talked to said that the best weeks had been the 2 previous. Who knows if it will pan out that way... but a pretty good rule of thumb if you're gonna try a new destination in RI or MA June is the month to do it. You should do well. We fished "Surfside" and around the airport... also Madaket. Hope I'm not spot burning here... I think that's general enough

The north side of the island down Madaket way can be very good in June-July. Seals can be a problem around Smith point.
