Just head out to 180 -200 and start looking for rock piles. If the current is strong use a 10-12 oz sinker. If you use anything lighter the line will drift passed the small rock piles. At Newport its all about finding the rocks and dropping on them. If you off by a couple of feet all you will not get bite. Here is a pic from last Sunday.
