Bunker are less active at night. The Bass will take eels as well as bunker even if both are present. From experience.

Now plugs are a different story. I make my own plugs. Mostly BIG swimmers. Some up to a foot long. 2 years ago I was killing Bass on them in the Weakapaug Breachway in November. There were live bunker all over the place but I wanted to prove a point to myself. Last year I couldn't buy a fish on a plug when the bunker were present. Changes every year and I don't know why. That's why we keep at it. It's a learning experience everytime we hit the water.

No boat, back in the suds.
