I have been doing very well this year and fishing NOWHERE near the bunker schools. I get bait and go a few miles away to fish, no bunker around at all except in my livewell.
People used to slay bass on Herring in the canal for years, did that cause a major issue in the fishery?

I truly dont know, but I think opinions are being formed on a small sampling of a large population and geographic area.

The only reason you are catching fish is because you bought a boat, and boat fishing is easy
