It's not like it used to be in the usual haunts. But if you can find them they're usually in schools. Most rivers near the ocean have some kind of holdover population.

I do a lot of Sea run brown fishing up here in Maine and find small schoolies from time to time with them.Line ices up at times and I've found using braid is difficult when real cold as the water in it freezes it together at imes between cast. Not good with light stuff LOL.We used to yrs back find fish at all the warm water outflows of the power plants and similar places.Even hold over blues in Boston.
