By day, a blue/white danny and a yellow/white pencil serve me well.
By night, the same danny and several big needles (white and black work) is enough. If the current is strong, a yellow darter or blue/white bottle is useful, too. Eels, of course, are better, though plugs are good enough.
Fish are moving and heading south, following bait. Find an ambush point, with rocks downtide from an estuary, river, or long beach and with deep water nearby. Work it at daybreak or in the deep of the night for 1 or 2 hours as often as you can. Fish will show in waves several days apart. Frequent short trips produce better for me than occasional all night marathons.
