Scup Update

I went to Conimicut Point on Sunday with Jeff Henderson. We got there about 6:30 and fished until dark. There were so many people fishing the beach, they were without exageration shoulder to shoulder. Everyone was trying to catch scup.

Jeff and I had waders on and walked onto the bar a little bit.to get away from everyone else. Using sea worms we managed 24 scup between us. Unfortunately almost all of them were tiny. Between us we only caught three or so of legal size. Most were between 4-7 inches. It was like fishing for sunfish. I can't say that catching such small fish was a whole lot of fun, but it shore ( yes I know its  spelled the other way) beat the guys on land who we didn't see catch anything
