I don't think anyone will give you any specific locations unless you are out there fishing with them. Anytime you can tag along is a good time to do so. Sometimes guys post when they are going out, or you can ask if anyone is going when you are.

And welcome to the forums
Tuesdays I usually have to be off the water early, so it kinda limits my time. Also, at 3 hours my back starts hurting and if the conditions are bad I might not mind too much. 5 hours is probably my normal time on the water. 9 hours and I'd be crawling to my truck
