Well now I'm going to be camped at my dad's house until he's able to fully safe alone.

I will be very limited in my fishing and will be hitting just one spot which is a somewhat shallow protected area at the north end of Portsmouth. There's two decent rock piles extending from shore on either side of this spot and a nice patch of eel grass on the left one.Always lots of small bait around like silversides and peanuts later in the season.This spot produces a fair amount of schoolie bass with the occasional 28-32" thrown in and of course some blues too.

I'm keeping it to one setup,my Batson 1088 and StradicFI 8000 w/20lbBackcountry and 30 and 50lb leaders.Sticking with some basic Pt.Jude tins,an olive/white Salty's small popper,a few bombers and mambos, a white Hab's stubby needle and some storm shads.And a big pencil just in case.

What else do you guy's consider essential plugs for this type of fishing?
