………but both Friday and Saturday produced limits.  Trolling harnesses with a variety of methods was producing the best; bouncers, divers and keel weights.  16 to 20 ft from the bay out produced. 

Sidenote:  Stop in @ Matthew’s while picking up your bait, and if you aren’t sure where the fish are, ASK.  They are going […]
