So many of you have said what I've always felt -- the fact that there are no definitive rules, or guaranteed formulas keeps the game fresh and alive. However, trying to figure out some of the subtle nuances that turns on the cows can often lead to the difference between a poor day and a great day.

6 hours spent in the water two weeks ago verified that the big cows were holding in the dirty water and a week later we made sure we fished all the roiled water and we caught large.

A week later when five foot surf was slamming the beaches we made sure we pushed into the milky water and again we were blessed with big feeding stripers.

Massive schools of sand eels are responsible for the large concentrations of bass and in many cases smaller eels are producing big stripers while large eels get eaten by bluefish.

I would love to hear some other examples of when making a small change proved to be the key to success.
