zoned out - part 2

Last week I was out in the surf, along a back inlet, and on the inlet rocks.

Bait was basically all over and some fish were busting the surf, had to be striped bass or blues, though probably small, and not many.

Never got a hookup and got one quick bump on my lure/teaser combo.

Found out that the bait was likely sand eels. SAND EELS!

Never even occurred to me, but when fishing with that bait around, one uses very different tactics than what I was doing.

Perhaps it would have made no difference, but I do tend to stick with one method too long.
