As the spring migration of striped bass starts to slow, anglers begin to focus on catching summer flounder, or fluke. This year, similar to the past three years, has gotten off to a slow start. “The fluke bite is slow but anglers are working to catch large fish," Elisa Cahill of Snug Harbor Marina in South Kingstown said last week.

How to See the Trolls in South County
The weather was iffy last weekend, but I decided to take a chance on it and drive down to South County with my kiddos to see the magical trolls at Ninigret Park. I knew what the outdoor wooden sculptures looked like, but I didn’t quite know what to expect.

When the trolls were first announced, my social media feeds blew up with images of them, which can take away the wow factor once you see them in person. I wanted to preserve that effect for them.

Guitar virtuoso to bring acoustic stylings to the Pump House
SOUTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. — There are certain musicians who have a way of standing out just by exhibiting their craft, and Hiroya Tsukamoto is a stellar example. Originally from Kyoto, Japan, he utilizes his talents in a way that captivates whoever is listening in a mesmerizing fashion. This approach has also garnered him widespread acclaim while enabling him the opportunity to collaborate with the likes of Esperanza Spalding, Michael League from Snarky Puppy and many others. On June 9 at Pump House Music Works in Wakefield, folks in the area will be able to experience Tsukamoto’s artistry for themselves. The show starts at 7 p.m. without any openers, so attendees can expect this particular performance to not run too late on a Sunday night.
