Must be September.... my shoulder is junk, and getting worse from getting in the surf both dawn and dusk daily. Wind has had me on the beaches and off the boat. Getting real thin on my go-to plugs. Lost my best fall producer this morning, a TDF Howdy.....damn bloos.... Smashed a ten year old, proven SS needle into a rock the other night due to pilot error on my part. Happens when I sacrifice sleep like I do this time of year.
Clogston nailed it as to how the storms have affected the fishing up my way. There are fish, just not the numbers or size we should be seeing. Bait is sketchy from shore, just ok from boat (spiked macks/tinks and butterfish). Not seeing birds working for couple weeks.... But I am going dawn and dusk daily, with a few late nights thrown in, because I can. (I have about 12 weeks of work on the schedule, just waiting for some deposit checks to come in....been working on my house for two weeks, waiting  sucks)

Has anyone seen my arms?

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Been slowish for a while up here but there are starting to be "signs of life". Birds are gathering and there has been a few instances of gull-madness but not too many busting fish. There are goodly amounts of 4 to 5 inch herring in the local harbor and it will be fun when the bass find those. Had fish close to 20# in the usual fall areas this morning. Also an abundance of dink 12-14" bass close to shore. Blues still here too so this next week or two should be interesting and fun.
Remember you have all winter to "sleep in" so go get'em!

Seems like size and quantity is rapidly increasing from CCB right through SE mass into RI. Timing seems about right too.
