Mike...I believe some fish and bait are finding their way into the bay thru the DE canal bur not many as of late. Some guys are catching up north but the better bite is definetely off PLO and has been for a week or more. For some reason that bait off PLO has barely moved northward. Fished between Cove Pt and the HI on friday and saw very little bait. Biggest concern was total lack of birds. What we saw were gannets flying south and most were in flocks/ formation of 6 or more. My take for now is either go out of PLO/Buzzs or work the BB area down thru BP/TPL. I agree with Skip another week should have the fish better distributed throughout the bay. I am not use to skunks when targeting big fish this time of year but I probably hit it too hard too early and picked wrong areas. I am not discouraged and will keep going until the fishing becomes catching. You and Scott are on my list for sure.
