I'm not going to rehash the fact that it's been "snotty" out there for the past 4days.We all know how bad it's been
We fished up near Marty and John on Sunday. It took us
an hour just to get across the bay to fish the west side, out of the wind a bit. For those of you who don't know, the BIG WILL is an old work boat, built as a clammer, and fast she is not! What she is , is big and heavy and ready to take whatever the bay throws at us. We pounded around all day and wound up with 4 keepers to 39" and one throwback at 26". No one got sick or hurt and everyone went home happy.
Sunday was just as bad and a little colder. We fished much closer to home and managed 3 keepers to 40"! Very crowded conditions in a very small area but some nice fish to be had.
Monday we were back and finally limited out for our 4man party. Another Citation at 41" topped the list and the others were all from 37 to 39". Conditions were still cold and windy (NE) and the water is stained brown
Screwing up our white shads.
Today found us in the same area with fewer boats and more fish! We had 8 fish on but only boated 4. The keepers were 46", 42" and 2 at 39"!! The fish lost were huge, 3 broke leaders and 1 threw the hook! Lot's of action and we got in early
We are averaging a
Citation a day and I hope this pace keeps up!! The 6-pack lures have been doing well...landed a 41 and 39" and a MONSTER HIT today, snapped the leader like a twig and I lost the rig.
Our best lure has been John Deere/ White Shad, off the boards, back 7 bars. Next is Blue/white Shad same thing. The depths have been around 40-30'. The 46"er came in 28' today.
We are booked into May except for tomorrow when we are "fun fishing" for ourselves. Hopefully, I'll get to reel one in for myself, for a change
Meanwhile I have to get in touch with Fish Nut for some more 6 Packs!!!
Good luck out there and if you see Big Will give us a wave!
