The sharpies are still getting a few fish at first light including one in the mid-thirty# range yesterday but the bite is only on for a very short window of time. Absolutely the worst October I've seen ever. Still holding out hope though as the big mackerel are thick just North of here and some bigger bass will usually travel along with them.
