I bet #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& and Steve are on them and know where the bait is.

If Newport and Jamestown area have squid wouldn`t that be a good area to scope out?

Anyone know what happened to your bait in SoCo?

Sorry John, self-edited out... family site and all...
Lots of people know where the bait is... some pods of bait only have little fish, some right now have big fish.....

Thanks everyone. I was out again this AM --NO JOY, but suffering
from sleep deprivation. Mother Nature put that Mama Bass in
close proximity to my shad but let me tell you when she took off
into the current, it was my knots, my line, my rod, my drag and
a steady hand that brought her to the shore. So I would say 50/50.
Be prepared my lads and always believe the next cast will bring the
reward.
