Bay bassin'.. 3/15

[Dennis]

Minus the bass.
It's been a while since I fished, and I wanted to try out my new pod and Madfrog liberator. I tried yesterday afternoon and caught two chunk spotties, but the conditions got bad. I went again this morning, for calmer wind and water. Launch at 0500, and paddled out past the channel. 65-67 degree water, lots of eel grass, and clear skies. I threw a plastic in the dark, for nada. Around 0545 the bites started happening. No spotties, but one corvina on the retrieve that shook off the hook. Another one lost due to a failed hook set. I was able to use my new pod's built in ruler on a couple of bones, and a croaker. Mid column fish, in 8-10 ft of water. Off the water at 0830.
