Summer Slowdown Arrives

The postspawn feed is over and the summer slowdown has begun just like it always does around July 1. The fish are still around, but you will have to adjust your times to maximize your fishing opportunities. With warming temperatures and water, the fish have become less active in the warmest times of the day. So, if you are looking for the best action, fish the best times. Those times are early morning, evening and nighttime. Cool, rainy days can also be productive. I am getting reports from all the RI CAG guys from around the state and just about all report slowing action compared to a few weeks ago. I have been catching fewer fish and smaller fish in the last week and have seen less activity all around RI. What can I say, summer is here.
