Marty and Mike.....I was out with a buddy, on my boat last evening for a little "Whack-a-Mole"
The bait you are seeing flashing around with no birds or fish bothering them are FULL SIZE Bunkers, not Peanuts! The millions (it seems) of Dink Rock are keying on the Bay Anchovies. If you toss a hook into the bait you can snag Bunker 9-10" long. When the "Bubba's come back in a few weeks ...it's gonna be fun
I can't tell you how many we caught because we had two on, all the time and were having a ball C&R on small bucktails and smak-its. There were birds everywhere and we were right off Knapps Narrows! Lot's of fun. We did manage two 5lb Blues which my Buddy kept for dinner.
Thanks for the welcome back, I've actually never left, just wasn't posting.
