#^&#^&#^&#^&ing Fish
Well now I know where they all went. Had plenty of shots, but still have yet to land one. Had one follow my metal right up to the rock I was on. I've been stubborn when it comes to light leader and tying direct. That all changes tomorrow. We will see if it makes a difference. The bug has hit in a big way.

Hope so. This is basically the 2nd year I've targeted them and the first year seriously. I have been using 30lb Suffix with 30lb flouro. Like I said I was stubborn, but after being unsuccessful the last week and with all the fish around, I admit I'm doing something wrong. Tomorrow four feet of 12lb flouro and no extra hardware. Uni to uni. With the water so clear and the sun high it 'should' help. We will see. Just need the fish to show up and test it out. |

In line with some of what you're saying.......there is TONS of bait out there. Not many predators however....seen plenty of schools of juvey blues.....where are the bigguns? Where are the Bass?...Bait will be gone before the leaves fall. |
 ... it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

It's been a long time since I've seen so much bait. Most of it seems to be very small. Peanuts, bay anchovies, and some smaller bait I can't ID. I've also seen the little harbor blues with not much else on the bait except the funny fish lately and some smallish bass.
Other areas there are lots of butterfish, macs, and juvi herring. Bass seem to be concentrated in confined areas and not spread out as many have been saying all year long.
Right now I'm only concentrating on these tunoids, but something is definitely 'off' and has been for quite some time when it comes to bass and blues.
Certain areas that I've fished ALWAYS held blues at dawn and dusk, but this year they just aren't there and weren't last year either even with mega bait around. |

Is Falmouth or the Vineyard the best bet for this weekend? I usually fish out of Westport, but would like a shot at the little tuna's, although I get enough frustration at work; don't know why I do it to myself on the weekend too  . Last year outside Quicks was so frustrating, on them all morning without a sniff and I cycled through all the usual goodies, maybe this year I'll get lucky. |

NICE ,those fish drove me nuts yesterday. Jim had at least 4 to the boat by the time I caught my first fish, but it was a seabass  , figures.
I did land 4 albies and my very first ever spainish mac, also caught a monster scup so I got a Cape Cod Grand Slam of sorts off of mr. striper's boat.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Had only a 5 minute shot at them yesterday, if that. They seem to have disbursed for the time being. Going to kill me not to hunt them down today, but have less important things I have to do.
Did not see the boat guys doing much at all yesterday, but they were much further out than previous days.

Growing a beard was on my Bucket list and figured the way I am knocking fish off the Bucket List last/this year, I might as well do the beard, too.  |

Found them very early south side before the winds picked up. A single pod only came into range once for a few minutes for this lowly surf fisherman. No takes. Other pods seemed to be only little blues under the birds. Winds picked up and there was no way to reach them so took off. Checked the calmer waters to the west later on and it looked fairly dead except for a few birds and a couple boats way too far out.
Have yet to find anything close to the mayhem that occurred a couple weeks back.
