Nice. The less pogies the better. Hopefully blues will scatter what is left of them.

How you figure that Mike? The way I see it, if pogies are in your harbor/area, you have a much better chance that larger fish are also around looking for them as a meal....

My experience from the surf w/pogies around... If your not snagging and dropping your getting skunked and there not always thick enough to do that.

I'm sure at times that's true but it rarely seems to work out that way for me. My best nights always seem to coincide with reports like this as well as reports of good numbers of bluefish. When boats are killing them on with the pogie bite I feel like I'm always eating humble pie.

I looked at the chart and their is a sphere on squantum that they can not go past.
So if they were near the mooring field they where is too far!!!

it must not take much for it to be worth it to them. i was up in maine a few weeks ago and there was a small school (maybe 25' diameter) off the beach one day. then next morning there was a boat out there netting them.
