A local just walked in right now, last two nights hammered the fish, ugly conditions, tough wind and rain, but got fish.

I agree it's not what it used to be, might never be - seals suck (but go to Monomy), the plover situation sucks, the seals suck (I said that already, right?), but it ain't all that bad.
From talking to the old timers, *not* catching used to be unusual. Now, the fishing you post about above is the exception to the rule. With 6 months to a season, there's always going to be a string of days to point at that have good fishing. The difference is that there are *far far* more strings of days that you won't get anything from the beach aside from a kibby bass or two.
