The trend I see is fish a lot and you will catch fish. It has become like throwing darts at a dartboard. Does anyone remember catching 50 fish a night off the jetties in the 90's? Where are those fish now they're all dead is the short answer. When you have capt Ron saying its the best fishing he's seen in years what do you expect guys to believe. This morning there were not any shorts on the beach. Small fish you can get in the back bays.They haven't even beenn thick in the rivers this year. It's all about keepers for a lot of folks who just started. Its hard to expect them to care when many of them have never had a 50 fish night.
