Yeah, that was epic. The Columbus Day blitz.
I'd go back to 94, 95. The Back was monster. We had so many nights with literally 20 to 30, 30# to 40# fish. No 50s but just a consistent pick of 30s and 40s. From the Second Rip to High Head it was huge. We'd start at the Race and work West as the tide fell. The sand eels were 6 to 8" long and eels and needles did a number. We kept it quiet so you don't see a lot written about it. Most of the guys were commercial so they didn't brag.
