Another grab bag in the Bay. No legal bass but I landed about 20 fish including 2 nice croakers. Water was 63-65

after seeing people hooking fish right off the south shore launch ramp, I towed my wife and I around it for a bit yesterday, and she landed her first fish on the yak. it wasn't a keeper, but she was still excited.. :D

Thanks man! Changed

what kind of lure were you using? we basically went everywhere you went in the video, but sunday midday (11am ~3pm). timing wasn't good, so that could account for the lack of hits. I actually landed the catch, but gave it to my wife to reel it in.

hoping to get better hit rate so that she can get "hooked" and be more willing to head out with me.. :)

I was throwing a 1/4oz ball head jig with light wire hooks and a 3.25inch misslebait shockwave. In bluegill and a chartreuse color. Takes forever to hit the bottom but I work it back slow. Pop it up a few times right when it hits bottom. A little scent helps them come back for that second bite. Using 7# line keeps it looking natural. Any time the winds are up I find water thats blocked by the wind and cast my lure around the wind break. Good luck out there.

I was out for the 1st time from Mother's Beach on water by 6am off by 12 and bite was good early morning and died after 11 so made my way back fishing 1 island then tried bait barge for a few strikes there. That was a long ass peddle for me lol. Not used to going so far as NPH is much easier.
