CSK

Specialist I'll call you tonight. I'm actually having some truoble getting the jig heads I like but found a substitute. I have been using shads and Fin-S-Fish with god results and experimenting with other rubber trailers, they all sem to work good. I'm fishing them a little differant than JJ or Slip but it works and have not got a fish at the funnel since that night but work some other spots.

i just got in half dozen 4oz bulletheads and found a place with 5ozers but i'm scared to throw that much lead...:p ;)

JJ18 Would this be a real store or internet?

if it weren't for the taunton remark i'd tell ya...:p

my father-in-law's name is richard...i just call him #^&#^&#^&#^&...:D

check your pm's...

JJ those size jig heads is what I'm looking for! The ones I'm using now are only 2 oz. I'm looking for 3 to 5 oz. either unpainted or painted, I don't think the bass care much. Everybody claims the Ditch is dead right now but there are always fish somewhere.

c-rat...was that you and specialist next to me this morning down the ditch??

4oz and a slug and i wasn't touching bottom!!...fargin wind...how'd you do??

managed 5 or 6 shorts on slugs and jig/pig...missed a few more since i could hardly feel my jig with the bow in my line... :(

hopefully the wind will lay down tomorrow...

i get the jig heads from that place in nebraska...the place in missouri has the 5's...

JJ we were before the bridge right after Slip. Tony got some there, but I did'nt till we went cape side and caught the begining of the slack. I lost a 37-38" maby bigger at my feet due to knot failure. I landed 4 that were around 30" . I fished SLuggs. Some nice fish were taken by chunkers. I may go tomorrow am. Boy did that wind pick up or what.

JJ I make shorter cast and sling it up-current more. I tend to jig slowly and swim it more, got more fish swimming it than jigging off the bottom. I'm still on the learning curve on this but have used rubber shads for years with good results. I only had one fish there but got five more on the Cape side fighting te wind. Saw some decent fish taken on chunks wich is what I do best. Specialist did you make it back down? I may hit it tomorrow if I don't get out codfishing, depends on the wind.

Yes sir, I went this morning with my dad. Saw some breaking fish coming through , I think they were blues. Fished the spot where I got my fish, nothing with sluggs. I got one dogfish with chunks, and my father lost one fish on chunks. There were breaking fish on the mainland side. One guy got fish on cape side at the first place we stopped, using pencil popper. He said he had all 18" fish and a couple of 30" fish. I wish I had tommorow off so I could go with ya. Let me know how you did.

Hey Specialist, red abu reel? If so I was just to your left when you got the D-fish. I'll be around early tommorrow. Blue jacket using a neptune.

JJ18 check your PM

CSK mo that was not me, I am only a spinning guy now. I am getting a conventional built over the winter. Are you up here on vaca, your location says NY?

JJ you are right it was kinda cold today, but at least there was no wind.

Specialist got the skunk! No breaking fish and dinks kept hitting my chunks. Threw my last chunk in the water in disgust and saw a bass around 16" pick it up. And it was COLD!

I think we will be ok in Rhode Island. We must have sluggs they are yummy. I am making up hooks as we speak. I stopped at Mikes and got the rod for my father. He swapped out the reel for me. I also bought a 100 pack of the hooks for the rubba.;) Now I just gotta get some more of that rubba.:p :p :p :p :p :p :p

I'll give you a call Thursday evening about sat.

I'll be working but I will get a hold of you. I did find some 10" sluggos bring your sewing kit!

Yeah baby! My wife is gonna be mad, she ain't gonna have any thread left by the time I am done.:D
