Just fishing beneath the bluffs on Block Island will
have you instantly hooked. Whether you’re a hardcore wetsuiter or like staying
dry in your waders this trip will be something you remember forever.
Lodging
will be in an Island style home that sleeps 8. Amenities are not really
important because you will be fishing long nights and sleeping during the day.
Rest up and expect to be fully exhausted at the end of this trip. There will be
plenty of food and you are not expected to bring anything except your fishing
gear, a well rested body and a great attitude.
You will not need a vehicle
on the island. If you plan to bring a vehicle reservations must be made ASAP
with the Block Island Ferry once bidding closes and you will be responsible for
ferry cost.
The trip –
The Commando Pro Staff will pre-fish the island
for several nights prior to your arrival. They will have a full report and offer
you choices of where to fish depending on your fishing style or what you’re
comfortable with. You will fish many of the big fish spots that are known and
some that have never been heard of. If you want to fish plugs, eels (available
on the Island), jigs or tins it’s up to you. This is your trip enjoy it.
This
will be a great opportunity to ask questions, hear some stories, and learn some
history.

    The shear amount of talent on that island that week is going to be incredible…not to mention the gear/plugs at your disposal. I really wish I could participate and put up that kind of cash to a deserving and worthy cause. Kudos to the sponsors and supporters….would be great to see others follow suit in the surfcasting community.
