Now wonder how much of this is attributed to reduced amount of larger bait north of Montauk. I always hear that 20 years ago there USED to be pogies/bunker/menhaden in Maine and Boston harbor in big numbers and bigger sizes but it doesn't happen like that today. It seems like no big numbers of large menhaden make it north of parts of Rhody and nothing like the schools I've seen in Eastern CT waters in the sound... Now where alot of these fish reside during summer in the cooler waters from Montauk to Plum Island (the one with the Sox fans) and they don't have as much of the big forage fish, that must have an impact too, right??
Clamdigger, do you see alot of big schools of big menhaden in the Bay? You're out there alot so you'd probably know....
Thanks...
