4/19-20 Indian Point

Tonight was docks, keitechs, and a slow methodical retrieve.  My working theory is that with the water clarity, they're either out just chasing forage... or "sheltering" amongst whatever timber, dock, or wind-chopped surface is available.  Hardly a sign of them where I caught on a tube this morning... but the bank wasn't being abused by the same amount of wind as it was earlier.  Went to the back of a cove where I'd seen bass busting shad earlier in the week, and caught 7 off the docks furthest back.  My wife will interject here to note that she caught 5 to my 2.  And neither of mine were the two which were keeper size. By this time, it was about the same time as the bass extravaganza from the prior night, so back to the marina we went.  There were a few blowups, but pretty mundane... thinking because of the lack of the wind.  Managed a couple more, plus the nice smallie below.

Taking a pause from fishing in the morning to celebrate and reflect upon the resurrection of our Lord and Savior.  What better location to do so, than a little slice of heaven on earth.  Will maybe have one afternoon report before packing up to head back home Monday AM.
