They passed thru, on their way north, and south, if there was an excess of bait, or small stripers, they would camp out there, like they always do when they find food. That would kill the fishing for a while, then the sea rats would move on.

rocky point, last 3 of the incoming current rips right to left, toss eel into current and let it take you out few hundred yards.
fishing water 20-30 ft at your feet.
few times i bounced jigs and sluggs lost 'em on rocks.

A rocky, boulder-strewn point where two sets of waves converge from different directions. Take a serious pounding, but big bass.

I love this thread. Got to get back to my charts and plan for next year.
