After a small mishap on the way to the ramp that left the tailgate of my truck smashed in and the tongue of the trailer with a little less paint on the bottom my son and I made it the whole 3 miles to the ramp in MC. I will never ever leave the driveway without checking the trailer coupler again. Anyway. We went back to the mouth of the river that is by the large ant hills ( as my son calls them) and set up in 27 feet of water. We were the third boat off the seawall. Ran all the same baits as last week when we got 5 in a an hour and a half. Fished from 7:30 till 10pm with only 1 fish. The next boat in towards the wall took 5 with on the same rapala we were using. The guy who was closest to the wall had his limit and was pulling anchor at 9:30. There were a LOT of boats out on the river last night. Marked a ton of fish all night long with frequent schools of baitfish.

And that my friends is why they call it fishing, not catching.;)

Gonna try again this weekend.

Sorry to here about tailgate and the slow fishing you were just a little to deep.We did not get in our regular hole but tried a new one.We took our 12th fish at 11;15 red head plugs did the best. W.W.

Thanks WW. Picked up the new tailgate fromt the Ford dealer yesterday. Will have the paint today so hopefully it will be painted and on the truck by next weekend.

I knew we were a little to deep. Going to give it a try again this weekend.
Took a ride on the harley before going fishing and looked at the area you told me about. Gotta give it a try.
