Monomoy 6/30 report

[Scunz]

Hit Monomoy yesterday at 0600.....pea soup fog but FAC........strange bite with huge pods of stiper/blue mixed pods feeding heavily at the surface and staying there. VERY sporadic bite casting right into the thick of them......then we noticed that they were feeding on what looked like tiny sand eels that must have just hatched.......the right fly would have slain them but they were not interested in the dead sand eels we had. Picked up a couple on sand eels and big eels on the bottom drift......but then I tossed an Atom and the game was on and we hammered 'em with plugs for the next couple of hours......all the same size 26-32" but a lot of fun.......probably 12-15 mid-size blues mixed in too.

We even saw this bright, yellow thing in the sky for an hour or so.....but none of us could figure out what it was.

Interesting.

I was out on Great Bay yesterday doing some work (not fishing) and a NH Fish and Game biologist reported seeing worms spawning. Not sure what type of worm, but apparently the water was alive with these little two inch long, pink worms.

I think the worms do a mass spawn when conditions are perfect. Has anyone seen this event?

Yes...it's not terribly uncommon....should have happened on the last mooon but nature has it's ways.

Game On! Get some worms on you line and have fun.
