    I fished the ocean this morning close to high tide last hour of incoming. It was a shock to see how much structure we have lost. By the end of the summer it will be one flat featureless coastline except for the inlets and a few sand bars and cuts. The south wind was a little breezy so I found a spot that gave a little shelter. 2 bass to 23" on bucktail and white grub. Moco.

    I am glad some of you guys are out catching. I have devised my fishing strategy for this year. I will be targeting Carp, LM Bass, SM bass, trout, shad, pike, musky and pickerel. I will fish for Stripers in the spring and again in the fall. I am purchasing a better kayak to hit the back bay spots and also the lakes and rivers where I can't wade fish and get away from people.

    Fished the bay last night from 8-12. Fresh clam one dink to show for it. Should have been epic lol. Perfect conditions not perfect for the fish. Lack of fish this year for sure.
