| This is one of many schoolies from 14 to 25 inches that I landed today. I got them all on jigs. The fishing is back after a dismal stretch of weather. |
Finally, fishable water! And, surprise, surprise, the fish were there! I found very good numbers of schoolies in a couple of different spots today. I even saw birds working way out in one place along with a few gannets dive-bombing onto bait. So, slowly, fishing is returning to normal after a dismal and very stormy few days.
The one glaring take-away from today was that there was just about no one fishing. Most places I went to were very fishable, but no one was there. Maybe it was the cold weather or the fact that the fishing has sucked in recent days. Whatever, I can tell you it's way too early to hang up the gear. The fish are still around in good numbers. We have a solid couple of weeks left to the season, maybe more.
