It is interesting that many of the guys on shore that have gone large have also enjoyed some fairly extended stretches of the skunk. I know Jimmy Sly (sorry Jim) was on a horrible stretch of fishing prior to making a change and discovering large.
We'll have to see how the season develops to see if it stays this way. I found a lot of pogies on shore (no bass on them though, that I could find

) yesterday and they aren't in the Bay. Surf guys may have their time yet...
