Well, the Only thing to Report is: The MM Mack Bites Really Works & Good. It was Very Windy with 3-5 foot Waves.
When we started at 5:00am, We couldn't get any Bait plus the Water was Very Dirty.
We started trying to catch Pins & Greenbacks with Squid & all Webby could catch was Baby Mud Cats. Me there was Nothing on My Sabiki.
Just before Dawn, I told Webby that I was going to use the MM Mack Bites & Wamm; here come the Bait on our Hooks.
The Pins, Jacks & Blue Runners were everywhere on our Sabikis,. It was like a Frenzy, the Bait Fish were Fighting to get on the Sabiki Hook.
I knew that the MM Mack Bites would Work. Never did attempt the Straws because I ran out of MM Mack Bites.
Webby went walking towards the End of the Pier & brought back a Nice Mack. He Caught a couple More before I left.
I also saw some others Bringing Macks over the Rail.
Oh Yeah, All that I caught was Bait. No Kings & No Groupers ! Those that Use the MM Mack Bites; Do Yourself a Favor, "Leave the Skin On".

MM, I read tears143 report and he had better luck on the south pier. Not sure why but he stuck it out for a long time. I had thought the wind would have made conditions better for you on the north pier.
What time did you leave the NP?
At least the mack bites brought in bait fish and others. I did notice in the photo of your mackbites that there was no skin on them. But at least Webby got some macks.
I had thought of coming out there this afternoon but I was tired out from the flea market work. The wind seemed to die down for awhile in the afternoon.
I made some comments on the wind shift in reply to tears143. Let me know if what I said made any sense.
Shadowxmas and I may go out Tuesday. I will be up north from Thursday Nov 19 - December 1.

After you left, I moved to the bathroom area. There macks were boiling on the surface and the people around me all limited out. Around 3-5pm they were catching them at will on live greenbacks. I forgot sunscreen today lol. I think my face may fall off. I made my own verson of mack bites... cut the bellies into strips and salted them. We did it with salmon bellies up north, worked like a charm.

Good reports MM and Webby. Glad Webby got some macks and your mackbites worked to bring in bait. Will have to try those. Webby had a good idea re salting the mackbites. I do not know if you did that or not. Salting them will toughen them up and as you said leaving the skins on is best. That will help them stay on the hook better.
Looks like the afternoon bite has been better. Seabird and I will make an attempt at the Piers on Tuesday weather and wind permitting as he is leaving Thursday to go to WI for a visit with his family.

Seabird: No matter what Pier You go to, it only boils down to where the Fish are. I am sure Webby & I had better luck in the Wind due to that We were not in the Middle of the Bay. As for Me I was going for King & Grouper & to Test out My MM Mack Bites. Seabird: I left the NS Piers about 12:30pm because I started at 5:00am.
Webby: I told You that the Afternoon Bite was better there.
