That's what I thought, Joe - for a 1 1/2 - 2 weeks I was seeing birds on bait west of Goat Island - I kept thinking it was herring headed for the GS run...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
