Hello MikeP57,

For all the times that I fished Mattinecock, Harts, Ex. Rocks and the about… These areas are best fished with bunker! As you know… during the summer time, these areas are infested with these oily critters and the bass are homed in on them. Your best bet is to snag a few and your odds will increase dramatically.

I know a few sharpies in the areas that has tried eeling… but they always went back to bunker!

BTW: The Bunker temporarily moved out (due to the storms) but you can bet they will be back in big numbers in no time.

Also... Are you having fun yet with the chopper blues on popping plugs?

Tight Lines,

“Crazy” Alberto
