Where I live its been a very tough year untill now when the blues are starting to come in. They certainly are a welcome sight when you cant buy a bass.

NorthShore has been very good for couple of weeks. Big pogies still around Salem. Herring chunks (when you can get it) working well around bold shore structure. Nice after a brutal May and June.

There ARE Bass around. I won't burn any spots and I won't say precisely how big the fish were but I will say I am talking about fish that are above "keeper" size. If you put your time in, and I mean every night for 3 or 4 hours in the middle of the night, you will find Bass.
Since last Monday I have had 5 fish 15+ #, 5 other fish in the 32 to 34" range and one absolute monster that I lost after 10 minutes on a straightened 3/0 3X xtra stong treble. In addition Friday morning I found about 100 fish all breaking on something(?) but they wouldn't touch anything including eels, Sluggos, red gills, big eye teasers and all the usual swimmers/needles. I believe there was a crab hatch going on.
And yes, I have a full time job and go to work everyday. It all comes down to how serious you are about catching fish. I have probably missed 4 or 5 nights intentionally since May. I only fish what I refer to as "the Black Hours". I sleep a couple of hours before I go and a couple of hours when I get home.
Of course, I can do this because my kids are grown and my wife doesn't really care what I do while she sleeps as long as it doesn't disturb her.
So, if you guys realy want fish, they are out there and catchable. It's called putting your time in.
