No Bites!
I was able to get out for a while tonight, and things were pretty quiet up and down the beach. I noticed a dark area in the water about 100 yards up the beach and went to investigate. Fish were breaking everywhere. I was fishing eels.... not bite. I tried Storm Wildeyes in various sizes and colors.... no bite. I tried Needl-eels, and Kastmasters... no bite. I even had a chunks of herring, and you guessed it... no bite. I was REALLY regretting not having my plug bag with me at that time. It was hard to tell what they were feeding on, but if you were in a this situation, what would you throw? It was enough to drive a man to drink. Thanks!

I've had that problem more than once.It certainly can be frustrating to have the fish within easy reach and not have anything they want.

I would have used a teaser rig. If that didn't work, I would start ripping the lure really fast thru them fish. If that did;t work. Some days no matter what you do you just can't make um eat!!!!
