So my 12 yr old son wakes up and says he wants to fish today. I look at the forecast, not great but what the heck. Arrive at boat 10:30, wind is honking out of the west - white caps in the bay. Get some peanuts and we're off. Get around the hook and it's every bit 4-6' seas. Drop the peanuts down and can't even hold with 10 ozs. Outgoing was just rippin. Put out the trolling rods. Was not marking a lot of bait, let alone fish. Trolled for an hour+ without a hit. By this time my buddies, who fished the incoming, were on their way back with plenty of fish. Ran into the bay and hooked a 29" bass that my son reeled in - he was thrilled and i was happy we didn't get skunked... Sometimes you just miss the bite!
