While I don't exactly subscribe to the notion promoted herein, two nights ago under the cover of clouds they ate well with a couple of nice fish, not slobs but no slouches either, and a bunch of middle school fish, last night too much moon and only two 1/2 hearted bumps in the same local.
Night fishing is sooooo lonely these days here in the land of sand.  |
Why even try.........

Hey Steve - you can easily take care of that loneliness by posting a map 
I know you sand guys had a nice bite in June, but how has it been overall this summer compared to the past 2-3 years or so?

Hey Dennis! It's been better, the last couple weeks have slowed a bit but the mung overall in some spots can be categorized (as Mikey 2na puts it) as "friendly" meaning light and close to shore. New moons better by far.
I was swimming with my wife in the surf last week after testing lures in Truro for hours without raising a fish only to have three mid twenty pounders swim right up to us. I think I am onto something with a connection to BANANABOAT sunscreen and fish attracting scents! |

Hmm....I don't know how they'd work on fish, but those old school man-scents are definitely babe repellants, Tim -
No hot babe wants a guy whose after-shave reminds her of her creepy old uncle who used to fondle her... 
Although any one of those may get ya a GILF...  |
"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.

No uptick in activity yet that I've seen. Had several nice fish around the 30# mark this past week, but no big numbers.
Oh yes, there were some skunkings and near skunkings as well. Another night we went left and a very large school of very large fish went right.
Pretty typical late August so far though. |
