I fished Friday Night,both Saturday and Sunday mornings. Had fish jump around my boat and my lines. Not one fish. I used bucktail jigs and small umbrella rigs.

The best action I saw was along the cliff coming out of State Dock heading towards low gap. Almost in front of the cave to the bend. Probably 50-75 feet off the bank right when the sun was coming up over the tree tops. Lasted 15 minutes and it was over.

I assume the heat has everything scattered. Should see the blow up starting soon.

I was probably trolling too fast. Saw more action Sunday morning than anything. I think this week will be good. Hope to go this weekend.

I had my limit Sat in 30 minutes down rigging. One 26" at 40 and a 14# at 25. Took longer on Sunday to get two. Both at 40 and both the 26" version.
Those were loners. You find a school, and you are done in a hurry. I wouldn't dwell much on location. Schools are moving fast.

Alewives are still the best option if you can get and keep them. mechanical Bait tank pump) issues forced me into rigging.. Rigging catches them, but the bigger ones are usually more picky and stick to domestic forage. I felt lucky getting a 14#er this time of year.

Three weeks ago I was rigging and ALL but one were undersized so I quit.

That summer size limit really needs to be addressed..

Summer size limit? I thought the (2) 24" per day was the limit year round.
