thanks guys!!! and gals!!!! this place is boiling at dead low in the channels. cordage to the east bay grill. 8 to 12 inch tails blitzing in the channels. i can't keep it to myself so go get e'm.after fishing in the morning my friend who has fished there for 30 years took me down at dead low and said now just watch. fish busting everywhere in the channels!!! at dead low you can walk out and throw in to the channel.these fish are 40 to 50lbs. go get e'm and i'm sure you'll have quite a smile ;) :happy: any one out there that has a
boat i can put you on these fish but seeing how i gave you all the info you can find them yourself.good luck i can't just sit here and keep it to myself!!:smash:

shore manic--Take it easy, easy now--someone more familiar with such could recommend a tablet. We've had enough cardiac incidents here. Take it easy.:hs: :hs: :hs:
