Rought time of it on Sat.

Took a few hours to find the macs and only minutes for the dogs to drain the live well.

Not one bass all day. Frustrating........

Fished Saturday also, had no problem getting macs at 6AM, the problem was finding stripers. Did manage to get one at 42". Had my daughter and grand daugthers out Friday and stayed in the outer harbor and had some fun catching small fish in the 24" range.

Catching dogs with live bait? Are you trolling or anchored? If anchored you want to be against the rocks where there are no dogs. There are pods and pods of dogs.

Was drifing deep up in the Bay. Will need to try huging the shore. Thanks.

what do you mean drifting deep? I take it that you mean your baits were deep. If so, try trolling about 2-2.2 knots no weight.

Yes. Had the baits down deep. Been fishing @ 30', 45', and 60' during the day. Will take your advice and put it to use over the holiday week.
