Eaten, digested, and flushed.
You expected something different?
Oh, there will be another push, and everybody will convince themselves things are fine, but they are not.....and anybody who has fished for years knows that already.

Well north of you, the water is still very warm, there is plenty of bait, and blitzes happening on select beaches, with all size of fish represented. I was fortunate to come upon a school of very good fish on Sunday. Not a blitz. I was in my boat, but they could have been reached from shore as well. They wanted live macks. I think they are late this year......but on the move. (ie. yesterday sucked)

Changing gears to cod and tuna this Sunday.

but north of cape ann, the water is brown and silt filled... the river is spewing mud that has spread south along the beach.. to the north it's not too bad..... macks are feeding on the bottom on herring spawn in 120' of water.... there were a few blue fish blitzes on Saturday morning, offshore a mile or so.. but inside.. we swam macks from NH to half way down the reservation on Plum Island.. and never got a legit chase.. mighty slow for this time of year.. I'm pulling the boat tonight.. the rest of the season will be made or lost from the sand and rocks...it was a good season until Irene arrived.. it hasn't been the same since...
