Friday (08/03)
« on: August 03, 2012, 11:26:51 PM »
put another few hours on the water in the evening from about 5:30 to 8.  first two hours was exactly one nibble.  Found a spot around navy pier were we were able to pull 4 shorts, a robin and a dogfish.  Everything hit off the spearing again except for the dogfish which nailed the robin belly.  3 fluke weren't even worth a measurement and the last one was 16-3/4".  forgot the wifes rollin pin at home so couldn't make it work.

I've been trying bucktails, gulp, bloodworms, clam, squid, and killies.  only thing that is working for us now is a hi/lo rigged with the spearing....and even that is only good for shorts and robins.  I'm beginning to wonder if there are any keepers left in the bay :headscra:  Oh well thats why its called fishing.  still another enjoyable night out with the old man even though the wind and the chop was a little much for my little boat.

The bay fishing hasnt been great as of late, Im thinking because of the warm winter everything happened a month early 5hrug look for depths between 45-60 feet and look for some rougher bottom, Ambrose as well as around the light houses have been at least producing a few keeps over the rail, thats the best i can do without spot burning. keep at it its only a matter of time before a new batch shows up t^
Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
