No one fishing?

There's fish around. Lots of slots. Couple mid-20s.

No boat, back in the suds.

Too much going on, not enough painfree back days

I've been breaking in the new boat and was able to get out for a few hrs this past Friday before heading up to UMass for my son's graduation. Seas were FAC and the fish were cooperative. First time using the larger bunker spoons and they slayed.

Been out once and the wind and chop and lack of any sea bass keepers biting sent me back to the ramp after a couple hours, this wind is getting old.

This 20lb class fish and several others went nuts for a nighttime pencil turned by our own Bobber. It significantly out-fished magic swimmers, soft plastics, etc. The times I throw a pencil at night are far and few between, but I couldn't get a hit on my other offerings and the time and conditions indicated that there should be fish. As soon as it hit the water it got smacked as it did on many subsequent casts. We old dogs can still learn a thing or two.

i believe it! I had a season years ago (2008 I believe) where fish would barely hit anything in a certain stretch of rocky shoreline, but would HAMMER tattoo sea pups...( all at night, and lasted over a month) We couldn't make any sense of it, but rolled with it!

Pencils mimic fleeing squid. Mid to Late May is squid breeding time. (If i remember right…)

Squids would need to be confused to be where I was... I regularly toss a pencil there during light hours but not typically at night. Foolishness on my part, I suppose, as it is prime conditions for it, darkness aside.
