how much consideration do you give to "fish slicks",
when/if they are present? not so concerned about this when there is surf to work, or swirls, and other indicators that signal target areas; but, i am more interested in yer opinions when there is less than 3' of roll and not much else to go on,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

as an adjunct to what's before you;

how important do you guys consider "the melon smell"?
is that strictly bluefish/boos and stripeys, or do stripers emit an unmistakeable
odor of their own when feeding deep and beneath our eyesight?

THANKS, in advance gents.
