Caught 8 fish yesterday. Our lines were in at 10:15 and we had a limit in 45 minutes. Nothing smaller than 24". Kept four fish 26-28".
Went back out this morning around 8:00 am fishing the incoming tide. Started out slow and was beginning to wonder if anything was going to materialize out of this trip.
We picked up a 22"er after trolling around for a couple of hours and was wondering if this was going to be our only fish - we let him go.
We decided give give a few other things a try before we packed it up. I find that a sandwich in one hand and an open zip lock baggie of peanuts in the other will turn on the fish.
Within about an hour we caught a 24, 2-26`s, a 28, a 30, a 32 throw back, and a 36"er just as the tide topped out. That was a nice surprise.
All fish were caught on stretches and were caught AWAY from the bridge on either side.
