The very next evening the feed was back but this time were being harrassed by a huge school of sea herring. Had never seen such large herring right on shore. Has some some fun jigging them up. JackK even fooled one with the fly-rod. Did foul-hook a schoolie with the diamond jig- a plump fish indeed. Each night since then has featured lotsa bird activity but mostly out-of-casting-range. All the action has been just before dark this week. Tried this morning but it was casting practice.

As mentioned, it should only get better by the day going forward.
Next time you see them on silversides try one of Joes small Po-Jees with an undressed hook.Works everytime!
