Beach Replenishment......Dirty Water.....Destroyed forage habitat.....
The beach replenishment, and disruption of good bottom and forage sources, has definitely changed the pattern of bass and other species hugging the beach on their migration....
However...to those who would say those bass have all simply moved offshore....I ask them to explain the presence of giant bluefish....in the very surf the striped bass are absent from....
No matter how you look at it....beach replenishment has changed some things for the worse...and it will be a long time before things revert back to how some of us remember...
Something to think about....
