Another theory I have heard is that in early Sept . the fish are "staging" or grouping up to begin the migration.

I figure each fishers personal experience is going to be different from north to south and the ditch is its own world . Most my personal experience is Mass north of the canal on the outside.. not really a bay fisher. I also share your first 2 weeks in Sept lull,, 3rd week they're pushing bait tight to shore and its hot right thru the end of Oct.
