Summer pattern success

[Sluggoslinger]

I'll probably try a couple different things like actually raking for sand eels this year using the rake I bought.

I want to jig fresh squid in may/june and go directly to some productive spots. I have a couple places I wanted to fish last year that I didn't...

Late spring early summer is good for it's predictability and for it's short nights....Things are a lot more "by the book" whereas the fall runs have been a big question mark...
Ya got your southwest wind and your late sunset, early sunrise so you can hit both and fish through the "night" in a trip that is only a little over a tide cycle...
Plus I think the fish realize that they'll only have the cover of darkness for a short period and they feed a little more aggressively after sulking through a long period of daylight...
I know a lot of the bigger fish from the Striper Cup came in early summer....

I love summer, my feelings are in the spring and fall the the fish are moving sometimes this is good as it could bring some good fish in an area that hasn't had any yet also it could also do just the opposit and move the fish out.Usauly if you find fish in the summer there not going to move much there resident fish they are there for the summer.also the wether patterns are much better in july throu early sept.the only thing is take the plugs out of the truck and fish eels.
