We all have our opinions. I second the belief that the fish have moved offshore based on my own experience, and if my opinion is a pinhole in a piece of paper, so be it. but my pinhole view is becuase I've focused more on tuna fishing fishing than bass fishing. While dropping butterfly's or sluggos looking for tuna on many days has led to bass on every drop. If using live pogies on these same days, it's torture, what would normally be a 'best day ever' landing 30+lb bass is disappointing because your $5 pogie is not getting hit by a BFT and you're landing bass on 50wt gear.

Counting fish is no where near accurate, if it was, why was there a moratorium on dogfishing (another topic, but I think those things are big reason for poor cod stocks)? Dogs can regularly be seen finning on top from p-town to cape ann.
