Spanked by a Landwhale, 6-12-15
I had lots of bites today, but they were quick and much more subtle than normal. I missed way too many. My most productive areas had a slight dropoff with some current (there wasn't much today and the wind was against it). Hot baits were the 3" Flurry in Baitball, 4" Smokin Shad Paddlerz, and 5" New Penny Paddlerz. All were fished on 3/8oz Warbait Slayer head in either red or silver. Hot Sauce was judiciously applied to all baits. At some point the south wind started blowing and it even rained. At least I'll call it rain as I could hear it on the hood of my jacket, and it got me wet. Speaking of wet, the water was in the mid 60's at launch and up to the high 60's at landing. All in all, a good day to be on the water.

I stayed out longer than you guys did until 2:00 PM. The bite picked up when I paddled further down the channel by the rocks. Too bad I didn't have a camera as I caught my personal best spottie ever. It was over 2 lbs. possibly even 3 it was just enormous. I ended up with 34 today one of my best days ever at MB. Of course I will get skunked the next time out as MB is usually my nemesis.

Had a great day even with getting soaked with the heavy drizzle, thankfully Ed had a extra wind beaker and shirt as at launch time I went with a t shirt as there was no wind and not too cold. For me the fishing was good 31 spotties with 5 legals and a lot of 13" fish. 2 of my legals came on the blade and the others fell to the Zoom Fluke in Smoking Shad (pulled out the old go to bait) also threw the Zman Paddlez in 5" Redbone and New Penny and the 4" Houdini with the mandatory coating of Uni Butter. Fun day fishing with ED.

Thanks for the report. I'm debating on MB or Tidelands tomorrow morning.

Sorry I missed that. Here's how I buy them. I find the colors good on his skirts, but I make my own. I don't fish them with the skirts very often though.
