I too saw this last year in the upper bay. We saw fish boiling on the surface....as we neared the activity we saw the same thing in the water. I think we described it as "krill" or some sort of crustacean in a big ball that spanned a good 50 yards around. Never looked at it as closely as you did, but after reading your story it sounds exactly as to what you witnessed. Makes sense....and the bass were underneath feasting. As the bait moved with the tide the fish did as well....and we were using smallish bucktails to catch these fish.
My buddy mentioned the last time he went out he saw this again last weekend....and the fish were there. Along with the green eyed devils.
