Fishdoc, If you are going to try looking for mac's you need to have a couple of flashy sabiki rigs, they are small tiny hooks and are working better than the usual mac tub rigs, the key is to troll for the macks, use a 1 oz metal on the end of the rig, exp. megabait, diamond jig or crippled herring. As you are trolling you need to be jiggin that rod to make it productive, that is how we are getting so many mac's right now. Rinse the mac's in a bucket of water fisrt before you put them in the live well, this will help keep the livewell clean and the mac's will keep longer. As for the bass, we have been trolling the live mac's. place the hook thru the nose end or around the eye socket of the macs and get them in the water, let out about 100 yds of line and troll as slow as you can. Thats the ticket right now. The fish are basically all over its just that you need the mac's to get them biggen's. Get a map of the harbor and try fishing the outer and inner ledges, they seem to be pretty productive right now. Hope this helps, GO GET UM!!!!!!
