I'll be swinging for the fences on Sunday, I gave a full day's effort last friday with bait jigged up in the deep water east of the bank, saw a few marks on the finder, but no dice. It was interesting to get a mackeral on a butterfly jig in 80ft, he replaced a hearty whiting. That was a big mistake as the mack made a big tangle with the ballon, so lesson learned for me was macks and ballons don't mingle, maybe a weight near the hook would work .....

On the way back in there were 20 or so boats doing the run and gun chasing little guys ~40" on top under birds just east of the beach house.
