So, apparently we had some awesome Spot runs yesterday. Today was mostly decent-sized Bluefish and small Speckled Trout, with a few keepers; at least until around 8:30pm (high tide). We did start picking up a few Spot again; no run yet.
There has been no pattern to the fish biting; you just have to hope you're here when they decide to run.
Crabs are gone.
