Sandy and Bait
Message:
Site member Junkie (aka Jose) recently mentioned to me that one possible reason why there's not much bait out there right now is because of Sandy.
He said the time of year when Sandy hit the shoreline is when certain local baitfish are supposed to be spawning. Sandy might have interrupted their spawning stage causing there to be a low amount of bait right now.
How many think Sandy could have something to do with the amount of bait and the bite right now?

It's all the rain and dirty water. Before that first big rainstorm, bait was all over, squid were running, blues were filling into the Race, Plum Gut, etc., and stripers were hitting on the reefs. They are having a banner year in RI, up the canal and around the Cape. Many of the migratories likely continued north. I'm fishing RI this weekend. To be fair, big stripers are around in numbers. Myerson just landed a 73+.

I agree with RNA. It started slowly picking IP early this week after a few days of not much rain and then this crap started back and it dropped tight back off.
