Over the past month, huge clouds of bait fish have taken over my local break - especially in the mornings when conditions are glassy and perfect. Pretty sure they are Pilchards. They are so thick that they literally knock you off your foil and make it impossible to turn or enjoy a wave.
Are there any tips to dealing with this or are we screwed until they move on? Curious if some kind of frequency would scare them away.
Never would have thought that the perfect swell, glassy mornings, and zero crowd sessions would be ruined by fish! Brutal.
That sucks! We have an abundance of 5-7lb carp that we crash into in the lake. Its like hitting a tree trunk. The lighter the wind, the bigger the foil, the more my fishstrike count goes up.
