I saw basic patrick's name on the daily's quite a bit. You did very well considering how slow the shore fishing was (and still is)
Most of the blues and bass from shore are all comming from bait guys fishing bottom with half a doz rods scattered along the south side. Not my cup of tea so I did not do as well this year.

I just returned from the beach fishing dusk and watched at least 30 guys...25 of which knew what they were doing toss everthing imaginable into the surf from 4:30 to 7:00....and no one caught squat. Think about that 30 guys...fishing Wasque in mid oct at dusk and not one even had a stinking bluefish. Whats wron with this picture?

I have not seen ANY fish on the surface except for occasional school of albies that did not bite anything. The only way I could catch an albie was blind casting for that "lone soldier" crusing around.

It really is amazing that there are NO birds...none. I have not seen birds working at all this year. none. boat or shore. Plenty of bait...tons of bait in the harbors...all kinds.

I have bee doing pretty good on the bass but not fishing around the vineyard.....some people think Nov will be hot...I think it was over before it ever got started. I will fish Nov of course but shore fishing has frankly sucked this year on the vineyard (unless you fished the bottom and even then it wasn't hot). Even with all the ponds opened to the sea...not that may fish were taken there.
There were a couple flurries that made you think that it was starting but then it died again....I have a trip to BI Planned...that should tell you something.
