What a Day at Sea

Like an idiot I listened to the weathermen who said the wind would lay down today and be 5-10...........NOT...............Got kicked around pretty good.

I did manage to load up with macks for the freezer, but i could not not hook up with bass this time. It was too rough to stay on the outside, so i headed in for calmer water, trolled a bit and threw a few casts in skinny water. NADA....

But i saw 2-3 other idiots out there so I didn't feel that bad.

I'm still cold, and damp and tired. Rest of the week is a washout. So I guess i'll have to go to work instead of fishing.

Those areas are good, macks are everywhere, get out into 80+ feet of water and jig, troll small rigs if you have to, but your sounder should tell you what depth they're holding so jig em' up.
