Small stuff, maybe silver sides or small sand eels. Definitely not peanut bunker. There are lots of fish around but it is a search mission. Not easy pickings.

Paul,
probably in your neck of the woods last night as well


sounds like the same thing i went through last night

picked up fish on consectutive casts, then nothing for a while, then same thing again

overall, it was a good night to be out there

the fish i took was grubbing...nothing in the stomach except lobsters (2) and crabs (2)

some of the mystery bait out there is squid 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches

Yup - like Paul said we got very wet with that NE wind driving rain right into our faces. Felt like an October night but just warmer.

Tons of bait in another spot - appears like its going to be a good Fall with all the bait around in different locations.

My biggest fear is that will be no more of these by the way, this fish was caught right after a big weather event [IMG][/IMG]
