Put in 2 hours and nothing. Tides made it a ***** to manage lines. Heading north and lines wanted to go East.

Couple sox and a spring trolling all day long. Talked to few guys in the marina, seems like everyone had a tough go today.

I was out today from 7-11 at the South arm. The waves were massive, but the fishing was incredible for us, for a change. We fished 80' 2 rods with two dummy flashers on each side. 300' of water, close to the mouth.

The early bite was amazing today, did not really matter what depth nor colour choice. After about halfway through incoming tide all went quiet.

4 in the box all before 8:15 a.m! Fishing NA, south of QA marker. 400'- fish at 60 with pink n glow head squirts with purple flasher.
Didn't mark many schools but I guess the fish were around. Somehow I managed to go 4 for 4 as well

Do you find slack tide matters with respect to the bite?

 

[Ringo]

Good for you guys. The rain that we’re going to get on the weekend will send most of the schools up river. Did I tell you that I took Tuesday off to go fishing??

The bite didn't come on for us until well after slack tide....although I do think slack tide is generally better....
