Fishing near Pawtucket, RI
Sitting at the tidal head of the Blackstone River in Providence County, Pawtucket anchors one of Rhode Island's most historically productive river stretches. The river drops ~450 feet over 46 miles from Worcester before emptying into Narragansett Bay. Below the Main Street Dam, the tidal reach pulls in striped bass; upstream pools and urban ponds like Slater Park Pond hold warmwater species and stocked trout.
