Oh, Im sure they are hungry....what bass isnt up for meal this time of year. If this was summer and the fish might be resident, I would be out there casting my a** off right now. But I have a funny feeling they were moving pretty quickly...the water is 54 in these waters as of this morning...half the reason I go running in this place is so I can measure water temps..lol..52 Im done...this is were log book is very useful..."narrow the times you spend there".

Anyway off to bed..2am coming quick....have a low tide spot that can be productive this time of year under darkness.

for what it's worth~~~

i saw the same pattern take place today. only add pnuts to the mix.

there was a BIG fish within 20 feet of shore, in 6'-8' of water, moving a small pod of pnut bunker,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

back and forth, from up current(A) to down current(B) hugging the shore,
moving out about 40 yds(C); then back in shore and back to point A.

wait 10 mins; repeat,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,for about 90 minutes.
from Noon ~ 1340, FAC, and the only sign of life for miles! RIGHT THERE!!
so stinkin' CLOSE, i could've killed it with a well thrown spear

and i trew EVERYTHING but bait at her, rubber/tin/and all manner of AYC,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,although, George, i didn't snap on a Danny,
since i thought it was too big. tried to match the hatch with PtJude tins and swim shads to the tune of NADA~~~

When I see bunker of any size around I don't feel like I've fished right unless I've thrown a pencil or white danny for a while.

Well I didn't get "those" fish but did manage 3 small fish in the 20-25lb range and a big blue that made minced meat of my rigged eel. Seals were unwelcome company around 500am and scared the sh*t out of me....popping its head up not 2 feet away then splashing/swimming away once he/she realized I wasnt one of them. I was fishing by myself (my partner thought his bed was much more comfortable) and I think I had a mini heart attack after that. Stopped fishing round 6:30 and just sat there and watched the world wake up and kinda took it all in. No large but man was it a beautiful morning to be out there.

lol....not spoiled, if I was I would have a 50. Thought I was very close a few weeks ago and was dialed in on a pod of big fish for 4 mornings straight at 3 different spots.

Surf-casting too me to me is three things....luck,hard-work and being there (law of average). I fish hard for every fish I catch. And yes I do get skunked more often than not , but still got the motivation to come back (and beg) for more.
