Everything works and there are no hard set rules, just some things work better than others at a given tme. Good luck and nice catch. That was a great listen with Steve Campo. Everything works. A guy could walk on to the beach at noon, throw a old rusty lure and catch a 50 pounder on his first cast. But averaged out over a whole season that is incredibly rare. Its about paying attention and making small adjustments to maximize the amount of fish you catch. baldadonis2002 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn’t know what’s doing on the shore because your sitting on your yak and listen to hearsay from guys that can’t make an adjustment. Has nothing to do with being elite. Good amount of bass and blues right now on the beach and the bays. Albies showing up too. Lots of ways to bend a rod right now on foot not just from a yak.

They sailed away; disappeared in the dark. Bad day fishing is still much better than good day work.

Lmao its called being a 3-dimensional fisherman my dude. More than one way to skin a cat. Im and avid surf caster as well, always had been until a few years ago when I got a kayak. Bite isn't looking to good from the shore? Well then ill go to the fish. Many years of night shift no sleep, go to work days under my belt. And the elite comment is because for whatever reason boat fisherman/kayak fisherman are always looked down upon by guys like you. So before ya sling s---, why don't you consider theres other ways to do things? DarterMan and Popasilov 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah Popa, plenty still around. Theyre mixed in with the schoolies and 5lb blues hammering away at the crazy blow up of baitfish. The larger concentrations seem to have been broken up over the last month however. They used to be THICK. Popasilov 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rough Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 Talking about weird seasons. I witnessed a blitz this morning right on the wash in front of me. Fish were very thick and were feeding on smelt. It went on for about half hour and they were still going on when I left. That would generally be a nice thing, but there was a weird aspect to it: what was blitzing was snapper size blues, not even cocktail size ones, and...shad. From being hunted, shad became the hunters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
