I stopped trying to figure out what makes them come up. I have followed moon phases and water temps. I have found that they show up when they decide to. Water still cold. But I have caught them at the gun range in January one yr with snow on the ground. Just never know when they will show up. Clients were catch and release today. Biggest was 15 lbs

Epic day on this day. Had a bachelor party come out with me. All of them have fished before and knew how to cast very well. This is a cast and retrieve game out here. You must be able to cast over 50 ft. Longer your lure is in the water, better chance of hooking a fish of a lifetime. " 73 OVERS "Yes- 73. Nothing under 8 lbs. Got some box fish in the mix and some of the box fish were 19 inches. If you include the box fish we boated around 900 lbs of fish on one trip. First fish was 16 lbs and the last fish of the day was just over 15 lbs. The biggest was 18 pounds. Released many 12-15 lbers. Mainly we were throwing chartreuse sassys at them. Two of them are going on clients walls. They looked like cannon balls falling in the water. 1000's of them. One of our other boats was 1 miles down the shoreline and they were catching them just as good. We even got them on a Topwater. They were going crazy! All the way till we couldn't see our baits hit the water. So crazy, they were splashing us hitting gizzards that were trying to hide next to the boat, - trying to get away from the beasts. After an hour of that, we didn't even use the net anymore. My clients would lip the 10-15 lbers, remove hook really fast, cast out and WACK another one. For two hours solid, one of the guys would be fighting a fish. Multiple times all of us had one on. 6 people hooked up with a 10 lb fish at the same time. WOW is all I could say. In reality, most trips are producing anywhere from 10 to 20 fish for trip. But most of them are big. Boxfish are starting to bite as of last week. Getting 5 to 10 of those per trip ish. ( when the fish are cooperating that is) Side Scanned a massive school of gar, 2000+ strong. We were fishing the outside of the gar school at one point, picking Striper off the sides of the gar school. Got a big gar as bi-catch and had him to the side of the boat, reached down with poker and told the fish to be nice. NOPE. He flipped his head back and sliced my finger up. Bled for 20 mins.

Thanks!
And thanks John for the the bird call!
Today's pm trip: would've been one of those days again. Stopped at 25 overs due to the mom was complaining she was cold and bored and tired. She didn't even want to fish with fish busting all around the boat. My client said that is the last time he brings his wife on a fishing trip. Lol. He was very upset we had to leave fish busting all over the place. Most fish were 8 to 15 pounds.
It was the most sickening feeling leaving fish still servicing. As we were leaving we were watching John still bringing in fish. We were running over surfacing fish as we were leaving.
Today's a.m. trip, we had all of our overs in less than 15 minutes!
Pictures later too tired
