I dont think this is relavent to the thread, but think do think its important to note that not all bass are with the schools.

Yeah, but you know what Jim, you and I were the exception to the rule. Many of the nitwits (there was a thread on this topic last year) were doing what Nebe said. Snag and drop.
I know for a fact as I had guys calling me telling me how I made too much of this "striper fishing crap" "it's real easy". They were off the main pier in Providence and snagging and dropping till a 20# bass picked up the snagged pogy. I was really pissed about the whole thing and while you and I were getting bigger and better quality fishing miles away, these guys were slaughtering 15 to 20# fish at an amazing rate.
My wife and I were in Maui on our 40th anniverary trip in June of last year and this jamoke called me at 11:30 PM EDT to tell me how there were 4 guys on his boat and they had 8, 15 to 20 # fish in the boat and had never left Providence.
