waiting game....

I got there to find the bait fish shoaling and the terns gorging themselves... the feed shallow went out again and again and one mack was all i had... later i free lined some bait for a couple of hours and only one pull on the line, but the bite didn't develop...
EDIT.... the Bait i used was a full squid on a Kamasan B940 4/0 hook... freelined with the flooding current down the channel... it should settle on the side of the Channel and in the dark has accounted for many a Bass in Autumn. Razor Clam is Deadly too!
