First fishing report!
Headed out to inside of LP light house. Trolled 3.5mph on #1 dipsy 150 ft back. Marked huge schools of bait. Had a couple good hits. Hooked a bow on a Williams orange and black spoon. Snapped a brand new 10lb lead of flouro after the third thump. Not quite sure what happened. Used a dream weaver snubber, but i noticed the spoons still twisted the line. May have folded over and twisted with the slack in the line when it hit, creating a kink. Washed the lure the rest of the day.
Wind picked up way more than the forecast. It was a rough ride back around 3.
On a side note, where do you guys launch when you head out there? I usually launch port rowan mainly because it's more familiar and the bay provides some protection when it gets rough, but gas is expensive
