Hello all,
Does anyone in the S. Mass/RI area have any knowlege of navigating the fishtrap areas in and around Newport, RI and the Sakonnett River? I do some boating in these areas and have heard so many horror stories of boaters getting caught up in these evil things that I have been avoiding the areas alltogether. I often see boats inside the so-called fishtrap areas on my GPS chart, and I know that in theory they are marked by radar reflecting flags. Anyone out there with intimate knowlege of these fishtraps?
Thanks -
