Gibbs swimming plugs, along the Westerly beaches and Watch Hill in particular. This could be at any time in the Summer, well into Fall and more likely when there was good feeding activity going on with blues and/or bass. On the plugs, they averaged 8-11 lbs and were always a surprise.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08202225008504789861noreply@blogger.com
