Just got back from a relatively short nite fishing.Started at 7pm in one of the more secluded spots I fish in Portsmouth on the Sakonett River and there were thousands of mussles floating in the water,many unopened.There was pretty heavy surf,for the river anyway,and the portion of shoreline I was fishing is all baseball sized stones so many of the mussles were getting crushed.Tons of shiners and mummies feeding on what was washing out.
Sometime around 8:15 or so loads of 12-20 inch bass went insane hitting anything in the water.Had a blast catching them,
but within 15 or so minutes it was totally over.Fished for another
1/2hr without even a follow.
Truly one of the more unique nites I've had fishing,glad I was able to see something like that.
Anybody else ever see something similar?
