So are people catching them on bait, slabs, swim baits, or topwaters? I've always wanted to try to catch them on top....

All I know is they are catching them about 20 feet deep, south of McCown park... not top water there. At least that is all the guy I talked to told me...

Well, went out this afternoon and felt like I was graphing fish but couldn't get them to bite. I got one good hit but ended up missing it because my drag unfortunately wasn't set right :\. All the fish were right at the drop offs around 30ft of water but wouldn't hit my slabs, bait or trolling rigs. Anyone have any advice before I go out in the morning? My hope now is that they just went deep and wouldn't bite because of the clear weather. I think it should be a bit more overcast in the morning and hope that it helps my cause.

Harbor Master. Went out today. Fish were on the same pattern. Ended up boating 2 of them! The second one hit the rig pretty good. Hoped to find a few more in the area but then lost my rig Tried slabbing and a couple other areas to no avail so got off by 9. Hope to hit them again in a couple of weeks.

What ramps are open, and do any of the open ramps have a cleaning table? The website for ramp closures still show most all of them closed. When will the state park re-open?
Planning a trip with my son in the next few days...
