Paul, it happened in August all the way back to 1996. I had several epic nights at Ballston in front of the big dune and on "The Back". August 16, 1996 46# on and eel on a 9'Fisher blank and a 704Z.

August 18, 1996, 49# at High Head near the first Hole to the left. August 20, 1996 47, 43 40# at the Mission Bell.
No fishing from the beach like that anymore. Now these clowns at the Canal hook a 20# fish, kill it taking pictures to post on FB. Hell, we threw back 35# fish because they were too "small".

I am convinced that we we'll never see the halcyon days again no matter what conservation measures are taken short of a full moratorium.

No boat, back in the suds.
