Only one way to describe this bite, One herring one bite.
It was a cold rainy April 12 day but the day before was in the 80's and the water creep up 3 degrees to 49 and the herring started to bite a little better. We put 14 in the tank and started drifting the slower water. every drift and I mean every drift we pick up a fish or got slammed by a bass.
We had over 25 bites which we converted in to 14 catches non under 33 inches and one a fat pig of a 40 incher (Picture below). The herring we not as readily available as you would like them to be but if you get you hands on one then it's game on! The Herring bite shut off after a super dead low tide.
4 of the 14 fish we caught today Absolutely great day of fishing and it will be tough to beat!
