Had an evening earlier in the week with acres of bass feeding on silversides (very small ones) right along the shore in a popular local spot. Fish were mixed size and super-focused on the feed and I only fooled one around 27" on a small metal-lip swimmer. The very next evening the feed was back but this time were being harrassed by a huge school of sea herring. Had never seen such large herring right on shore. Has some some fun jigging them up. JackK even fooled one with the fly-rod. Did foul-hook a schoolie with the diamond jig- a plump fish indeed. Each night since then has featured lotsa bird activity but mostly out-of-casting-range. All the action has been just before dark this week. Tried this morning but it was casting practice.
As mentioned, it should only get better by the day going forward.
