If/When the Bait turns Shoreward...........

YESSS!!!

Rockport, that IS what i'm talking about.

it just stands to reason that the "multiple 40's" from last year,
should be between 50 and 60 this season................

and the 50's from last year, should be the
and the 60's from last year, should be the
and son, and so on, and so........

would love to SEE and BANG a break in the current
nonaction that is taking place on the NShore. its prolly me, but
i can't seem to find SHEEEET from tha shore. i know that it will
improve,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the WAIT is killing me in the process.

It's gonna happen in the fall in Rhody, are you going to be there for it?

[american spirit]

it's a shame to see these boat guys hammering them and shore guys with flurries of success, if any at all. maybe with the recent tropical storms/ hurricanse, there'll be a scattering of bait.

only thing you can do is choose spots wisely and wet a line.

[BassDawg]

so true, Shocker!

will definitely keep "wetting me lines".

it's been a tough year, and YUP a good old fashioned
HURRICANE may be just the ticket!!!

and i WILL be there in Rhody this Fall, the WKPG Fishing Tourney
for MS is a must do, prolly have to join MSBA or sumthin'

am going to Rhody in a couple a three weeks or so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
work sched permitting. would much rather hit up my NShore haunts.
and land sum belly-fillers from here

god i hope so, last year I didnt feel there was much of a "run". Just some scattered blitzes and some decent fishing. I would like to see a nice late sept/oct rush of big fish.

I guess i was part of the last bass thinning. Same thing happening all over again. The monster bass seem to be the last to go and when there gone it will be another 15-20 years to bring them back. I remember the 80,s when i could run down to the water, catch bait, catch at least two40lbers and be home in 3 1/2-4 hrs and not seeing any small fish. I M O we need a slot fishery with a top size as well as a short size with one large fish per person over the top size that way the commercials will get there fish and the recreational guys will be able to get a trophy.

Sorry ,i should have started a new post

It might just be a co-inky-dink but the local harbor happened to fill up with schools of bass (some bigger ones) in the last day or two after Berthas swells. Have not had a chance to get out to the rocks yet due to works stranglehold on me. Fish were agressive and hungry late yesterday so we may be turning the corner- finally!

We do have a tropical storm SE of new england. Maybe the high surf will bring the fish in closer to shore.
