I am no expert, but use a good graph if you have one... Look for baitfish and or fish holding next to humps and structure... 25-30' is about as deep as I can force myself to fish while staring at shoreline where I know I can catch a few!

Fish any hump. It's a natural structure that fish use to ambush baitfish. It doesn't matter how deep it is, the fish will use and hold to it no matter the depth. Obviously, you need to take weather conditions and seasons into consideration to match with depth, but they will be there.

With the way everyone got skunked today, I will not be trying anything new tomorrow!!!

Ah I see. 40 boats or 40 people? I'm gonna guess and say we have anywhere from 8-12 boats going to be there. RR is my partner. I'm hoping the weather stays nice. We will be the ones out there on a white skeeter with fish n ski windows.
