All we need is the cast net crew going down there and taking all the bunker like they do every year because the word gets out where they are. No bunker means no big fish to catch. Snag a couple and leave the rest.
My friend spied somebody dumping about 10 dead bunker into the water yesterday. Know anything about that?

Obviously any marina that has a light will hold the bunker when they are in and they are in, everyone knows that. Only take what you will use, we love our beloved bunker. I can't tell ya how many livies I have released back in the river when I came up empty and the dead ones go to the shore guys. Protect out bait!
