Me & another S-B'er went out last night tossing plugs.......
Not a single bump, .........
Plenty of phospherous in the water though .....
Pretty cool watching your partner light up the ocean floor with every step he takes....
Not a single bump..................
Nice stiff breeze keeping it real.................real cold that is.
Not a single bump......................

A LOT of times, it's not the color of your plug NOR is it the style of your plug.......sometimes the fish are there, but want nothing to do with wood, leads, rubbers, tins or plastics.
We tossed quite the variety of artificials with nothing to show for it.

However, the "phosperous" that could have also contributed to our presentation(s) getting the wrong type of attention.....also showed proof to the fish BEING there as I would see them dash from time to time while I waded into new areas. Now there's a sight that'll spook ya........then pissz ya off when they won't hit a dahm thing. Had a couple follow the plug in...but pull a U-turn at my feet without touching it....all under the cover of complete darkness, cept for the underwater light show, nothing like seeing the "ghost" of a fish follow your offering then turn around without the slightest tap.....If it wasn't for the phosperous, I'd a said the fish weren't there at all.

Perhaps I should have brought some eels ??

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

light trace of fire in the water last night. Bigger bait around looking like sea/herring jammed into the nooks and crannies. Decent night didnt set the world on fire but we had a steady pick of smaller fish 8-15lbs or so and 12lb blues for about 5-6 hrs. Comfortable 45 degrees at the water and 42 on the road home. And I didnt cry or wet myself because the reel handle on my vs got cold...

fished artificials: black and purple long island fish in vermont darter was unstoppable last night. Picked up some bass on a pikie I had made as well. They def. wanted the darker colors. back out again.. good luck out there everyone..

Domination takes full concentration..
