I fish the ss and have noticed the size of fish from shore is down, while the numbers are up. My friends with boats had no problem catching 25-35lb fish with live macs/pogies. They would fish clarks island/browns bank area. I have had to go to my fresh water 7' rod to have a little fun. reelling in a 18"fish with a 9foot surf rod can get boring. Larry agree with you about the seals. I was down at Duxbury harbor Monday and saw a ton. The funny thing is they are always outside, but these were on the inside beach channel, have not seen that in years. hopefully it is just a natural pattern, and when the millions of peanut bunker grow up, the big fish will return.
