Planned Sat night a month ago to fish the new moon all night. Got to Scarborough around 11:00 Sat night and fished ----------- until dead low about 1 AM. Then fished most of the incoming at Pt Judith - covered every inch all the way to the end of the East Wall. Threw mostly eels, some Danny and needle plugs. Not even a tap all night.

At first light, we headed over to the avenues we threw some surface plugs for an hour. Not even a look-sie.

Fished the new moon, good tides, very hard from 11 PM until 7:30 AM. Not even a TAP!! Didn't see anyone else catch a thing, but I was surprised at how few fishermen I saw. Maybe you all knew something I didn't, because i was expecting a good night.

Enough to make me convert to the dark side (boat fishing) for good.

Hope you all fared better...
