Then again I didn't see any in Great Harbor, Penzance Bight, along Naushon, along Pasque, along Nashawena, around Weepeckets, or in Tarpaulin. Of course I only spend about 200 hours/year fishing those areas year after year since the early 70's so maybe I missed the great rebound in the bunker population we are all celebrating now.
