at least you know you are hitting the bottom!

A good run is better than a bad stand!

There are literally hundreds of them in a couple of the Buzz Bay side of the Cape harbors, many in schools in very shallow water. They don't even spook when you almost step on them, just spread their "wings" and glare at you. Is this spawning behavior or???? I've caught them many, many times on various lures and flies - not on purpose - but in 40+ years of fishing on the Upper Cape I've never seen so many as this year, huge ones too. So if you like to eat 'em (and God bless you if you do, I don't even want to touch the butt ugly things!), try any of the harbors from WH to the canal. Along the beaches outside too. You will find them - lots of them!!

Not necessarily---I've had them come up and hit a plug. Windowpane do the same thing, as do fluke.

They're predators, not scavengers.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
