These fish are usually in tight packs rather then spread out over a large area. </div> <div> The best way to locate fish is to look for a concentration of birds. If you have a fish finder you will usually mark what looks like clouds of bait fish. </div> <div> When chumming with Grass Shrimp be sure not to be too generous or skimpy with the shrimp. It's a good idea release 5-10 shrimp at 2 to 3 minute intervals to keep a consistent slick and hold fish. Too much shrimp in the water and the fish will hang back for the easy meal and not bother to move up into the slick for your baits. Too little and your not going to hold or attract fish. </div> <div> A slight change in wind direction or tide can turn these fish on or off. </div> <div> When fishing from shore with bait it's best to use a float rig.
