Short answer: Because they are the best sport fish in Mass to be caught from shore (on lures) and as long as they are around (and I'm surprised they still are) I'll target them. Not to mention I'm stuck on an odd number of them and need two more.

L A: On south side CC there is no sign of decent bass or blues - at least not larger fish. Adult pogies swimming around unmolested. 2 to 5" peanuts all over. Bass and blues are not seen even pre-dawn, and they should be in these areas I'm fishing. I'd be ready for them if they were there. Now, if I were around RI more often I'd def be putting more time into them as I was yesterday. I'm guessing that's where you've been fishing as your description is very accurate minus a couple 10lb bluefish.
Until these things are 99% gone I'll continue to hit it since it's only a 10 week or so window. Bass - ~30 weeks. To me, a 7lb+ FA is slightly more satisfying than a 30lb bass.
