I wen to to penfield reef 3 times during the last 3 days at low tide without success. I only ended up catching a small freshwater pike there. The only other fish I saw caught was 1 small blue in the past 3 days. But, I did see some peanut bunker there. Not sure if they are being chased by anything. Has anyone been down there lately? And a few days ago in southport I saw a small pod of bunker. Anyone been down there?

Fished last night not far from Pennfield off to the right of the harbor entry (exiting) in front of the rocks near the marker on the incoming tide.

Lots of blue action....

I don't know. This was last year. The guy that was there said (since this was like a week after hurricane Irene) he thinks that it could have been a pike because it may have been flushed out of a river or something during the storm.

I wouldn't imagine a pike lasting too long in saltwater
