Keepers in the Shallows

High tide for Bridgeport was scheduled for 2:10pm Saturday and NWS was forecasting 6 to 11 mph WSW winds. Got to Remington around 2:30pm to find 3 chunkers there already.
Throughout the afternoon and evening I only landed 1 schoolie on a 4" chartreuse Bomber Saltwater Grade soft plastic rigged on a 3/4 ounce Hurricane jighead.
Sandworms were getting lots of attention and saw 4 schoolies landed and 1 winter flounder. Had only 1 hit on the original pearl shad Flat Rap FLR-10.
Later in the evening just before sunset I decided to start wading out on the sandbar and sandy flats while throwing the FLR-10. 3 surf fishermen with their waders on had just gotten there and were wading on the sandbar.
As I followed the tide out I started seeing bait and splashes on the surface. Saw one of the surf fishermen land a keeper on an SP Minnow. Another fisherman had an explosion on a Cotton Cordell pencil popper. I had a total of 7 hits on the FLR-10 and also had 1 swirl in front of me and a explosion in front of me when I went to take the lure out of the water.
Kept seeing and hearing the breaks as the evening went on and it was after dark. The surf fishermen left before I did and then I hit the road just before 8:30pm.
Plan is to have my waders on and bring my Aerial 8 footer with a few bigger plugs and topwaters in a surf bag Monday evening on the outgoing.

I have a hunch that the action I was seeing this evening was the beginning of the return of the migratories.
