Wind and fog through much of last week conspired to keep us largely tied to the dock, but we did get out Wednesday with Pennsylvania's Max Berger and his buddy Mark for a morning back bay expedition. Fishing in the bay continued to be hot, with 3-5 pound bluefish slamming poppers in the early hours and clams producing steady action on striped bass to 30" (and of course more blues) after the tide swung around.
