We had a great group of guys on board today but unfortunately got off to a slow start.
We left the dock by 5am and had lines in the water about 20 minutes later.
Despite marking lots of fish we couldn't get a bite.
Got a call and decided to run up the beach a bit. Got the lines back in the water and within 10 minutes had our first fish, a fat 43 incher.
From about 10am on it was a slow pick for us. Once we found the bunker holding the fish, we usually got a bite.
We ended up with 5 nice bass all over 20 pounds, the heaviest being 44 pounds.
All the action was on bunker spoons for us.
I know that livelining bunker was working as I saw people catching using that method and I spoke with several people who caught that way as well. However, we were catching on the troll and I have a hard time switching up from something that is working.
We'll probably try livelining next week after the weekend boat traffic dies down..
Check out the fish next to the bait ball.. moments later one of our rods went off and we put a 42 inch fish in the boat.
