Fished last night/this morning from midnight until around 6:30am. Super dense fog. Was planning to skish, but I forgot my compass at home so decided to just walk out to one of my usual rocks on the edge of the deep water about 200 yards offshore. Fog was so thick I couldn't see the end of my rod and I missed my rock. By the time I found a different one to get on out of the rising tide, I was way out of position and disoriented, so I stayed there until the morning sun burned off enough of the fog that I could make out where the shore was.
Was a long frustrating night as far as the fishing goes. 3 different times I had a good fish on, good hookset, pulling 10lbs of drag on long runs, then nothing.
Didn't actually see any of them. One felt like a big bluefish, but I'm pretty sure the other 2 were bass that hit my plug. I can only guess that the barbless hooks were the culprit, even though I thought I kept good pressure on the fish the whole time. I must be out of practice. :(
