It has indeed been slow in the usual spots at the usual times, including first light. The big moon and the warming water plus the abundance of baitfish (until very recently) have combined to put the squash on the "easy" fishing we were enjoying for the past month.
Time to think outta the box a bit. Late last week I found fish mid-afternoon at the end of a raging outflow. Yes, I had to drift herring chunks out to them but they were willing and hungry enough to eat. No slobs but a good pick of 26-30" fish. I think the fast water flushing out of a particular not-so-well-known cove had the fish in an opportunistic mode.
Gonna hit that spot again this afternoon or tomorrow and hopefully get out in the dark with the fake-snakes later in the week.
Also gonna radar-watch, try to time the arrival of any thunder storm as the bite sometimes will spike just before-during and after wild weather. Gotta avoid getting electrified myself though...
Tight lines fellow N-shorians...
