Hurricane Bill, now a Category 3 storm, will pass to the southeast of our region on Saturday and into Sunday, bringing potential problems to area anglers. As of Thursday the forecast was for 12- to 18-foot seas, possibly higher if the storm takes a more westerly track, bringing it closer to southern New England. All small boaters should exercise caution and adjust their fishing plans accordingly.

So there go my plans. For what it's worth, Fisher's Island Sound should be fine, but my 18 footer doesn't handle chop very well, so perhaps I'll limit myself to a MTB ride out to Bluff Point to watch the Mason's Island Yacht Club Regatta
