Saturday Night Report

[T-RockJaws]

Put in for a small derby at Campbell Point Saturday night. Ran up to just above Big M and started to fish our way back. Extremely slow night for us, partner had the only keeper with the two of us only boating 4 fish in a 5 hour tournament. Through everything at them other than the kitchen sink... Worked a drop shot for a while before dark with only 1 short spot to show for it. Switched to mainly big worms at dark and beyond but did throw some jigs and salt craws as well.

For our tourney, it seemed to be pretty much feast or famine. Winning bag was 18 pounds and everyone reported either a real good night or a real bad night, not much in between.

The bight was extremely soft. If you tried to set the hook too quick, you simply pulled your worm back in half eaten. If you tried to set on the bite and let the fish really suck it in, the fish would simply be gone when you tried to set the hook. Not much trouble getting bit, just had a hard time getting a hook in them.

Most of our bites seemed to come with the boat in about 30 to 34 foot of water while still able to reach the bank with a good cast.

Good luck!
