well it was another fun night many fish over 10# at least which around here is pretty good but still alot of dogfishies.
I thought the 48 foot tide would draw some attention. Basically all the fish done in these waters is tidal. At low tide here in the Minas basin ya have a verying degree of distance it goes out on a flat it can go out about a kilometer maybe more along the rocks it a little different but it'll go from no water to well 40 +feet which is pretty cool. The current is very very strong and you have to be carefull you can see it just rippin by but its good for bass. The fish come in with the tides as the baitfish are usually pushed up against the rocks so the bass follow as you know slamming smelt, herring, tomcod, shrimp you name but that is what i found in the guts so far. There is really no surfcasting here jsut becasue there are no beaches with drops or reefs type deal its all flat and mud and when the tide comes in you jsut keep on moving so you would only be casting to a few feet of water each time. At slack and falling tide you would be able to get a few rips in tho but time is the key! We catch most fish as the tide comes in and at slack and a few at falling but I think as soon as the the tide switches the baitfish know they gotta head er back out so the bass follow makeing tracking them a little difficult.
Fall is the best time and the big mammas should be soon in there eating as much as possible. which means ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ screaming drags!
take er easy
