I was down at the marina enjoying a quick lunch today, wondering if the wind was gonna lay down anytime soon. A fellow GW owner motored in with a limit cooler full of the cleanest, fattest linesiders I have seen in awhile. A little prodding revealed that he was (big surprise) trolling stretch's in some (also big surprise) sporty conditions but the fish are there. He suggested to try the channel edges during a running tide, right around The Hook.
Be careful out there; water taped out right around 50.
