I was skeptical that the front came through and might of shut down the bites. Invited a guess here on TFF to go fishing with me and my son today. The bite early morning started out good with 5 hybrids in a row. 1 lost fowl hooked. Then the bites just completely shut down after that.
On the other hands the evening bites was phenomenal. Many of my hybrids caught hit the lures while I am still letting out lines. Limits was quick then we did the catch and release till sun set and leave. We shall return tomorrow for round 2. Seen many boat come and go with nothing to show for. Guess they just hadn't figure out what them hybrids wanted yet. All fish were caught trolling artificial bait. Try the slabbing too but it just seems like I'm fighting a loosing battle with them always moving around hybrids. Seen a few good school of whites. Picked up a few on the slab then went back to catching hybrids since me and my son were having so much fun with these hard fighting fish. All fish were caught in 15 fow. Slight thermocline at about 22 fow and beyond in some areas.

My son give it two thumbs up!! thumb thumb







Getting ready to clean fish. 2 days 2 persons limits and partial catch from a guess who came fishing with me. He likes to fish but don't like cleaning fish.
All hybrids. Nothing small to throw back to grow and catch another day.

Those bunches of dots on side scan are school of whites.

Evening bites was awesome!!for hybrids. Schools of whites were thick but I can't get them to bite. This here graph is an example one of many school that I've found.

A good two hours of hybrids wrangling then this came. Many boaters were caught off gaurd. It came in at an instant. No time to react.Gale force wind.
