Skunked @ Canal and around Chatham

I took yesterday off to fish with my buddy out of Harwich and decided to hit the canal on the way down. Jigged for about an hour yesterday morning about 3:30-4:30AM - Nothing, donated a Ronz. Fished live and chunk pogies all over Chatham, trolled the rips too - nothing. Lots of birds and lots of bait - big schools of sandeels and the bays were loaded with pogies. Normally we see fish on the sounder - but nothing! Nothing except a few bluefish bites on the live ones inside Stage, of course just before the hook. Then jigged the canal from 4:30 to about 6:00PM - nothing - donated some lead and rubber.

I am fine with the skunk at the canal - as it all is learning for me since I am new to it - but whats up with Chatham? I feel like the fall run passed by a few weeks ago - its been dead dead dead - at least for me and my cohorts....

I am trying to go to work "late"on thursday to hit the AM canal tide but we'll see....
