Was on a redeye flight home and soon as I landed received a picture of a 30# bass caught while I was in the air. Got dropped off at home, changed and headed to the canal... it was completely dead and stayed that way until my next business trip when it lit up again and I couldn't get there.

That's why I like to stick to jigs at night  |
to be honest the fishing had been so much fun and uncrowded in the afternoon I have not fished any mornings in a week or so, but that changed today from what I saw. Maybe give it a shot tomorrow before the weekend zoo takes over.
JohnnyD we only have enough room on here for 1 Bigfish, I can't catch anything, the year sucks for me, why me why, Larry.
Been in your shoes many times over the years. Stinks when you can't get to where the fish are because of commitments. Larry has no excuse this year he has all the time in the world the fish just hate him. |

no nutin today. I felt like I was all by myself today. I rode for miles and saw maybe 2 or 3 guys max. I also did not see any bait and no fish or bird activity.

Same here - no people, no fish today. Did see a shark go through just about 10 feet off the rocks, my son thought that was very cool. He said it made his day worth while.  |

There were no fish Fri. or Sat. Did anyone see the boat trolling mid canal area? CG went near him and left and he continued to troll real close to the rocks. Got a nice plug and LOTs of line and almost a rod from him and the guy next to me said he got a nice plug further east of us.

not much going on Sunday or Monday, small fish and really only a handful of guys out now. No real bait in there either compared to the tons that were in there last week. I did find fish on some beaches though. Even ran into Backbeach on one of them. I hit several beaches off cape too on ride home but from what I heard I missed it by a day. For the 8 hours I put in driving and fishing it wasn't real productive but still an absolute beauty of a day and beats sitting home.

That guy would be me. Another trophy for my googan wall, I wish like hell I would have just put it in the tree, and let him try and figure that out. |
May fortune favor the foolish....

Since you told me about this, I'm still wondering why you didn't hold the line and strip the reel. |
