Now weeks later after the wonderful internet dispersed the information that people were catching, you better watch your hind end, because if your not careful some idiot will pull up next to your boat and chunk his anchor 15ft into it. Or maybe he'll see you catching and try to troll in front of you, but instead the wind and current catches him and he'll go smashing into your boat after his trolling motor or outboard catches your anchor rope. Had each one happen to me (besides the anchor actually coming into the boat had it come close) and even had them both happen in the same day before. So thats why I like to keep my mouth shut, especially at the beginning of a bite. The word gets out eventually, and I'm fine with it but its always funner to go fishing whenever you know there is a bunch of experienced fisherman out there instead of a bunch of gozos who been reading online and know nothing about how to operate their own $60K boat. This past Saturday, I could of literally stepped out into another boat if I wanted to, because he saw me catching on one side of the boat and decided he wanted to be on that side, and when he did he caught my anchor rope. Before he moved he was already only 40ft from my boat and afterwards he's inside 5ft from my boat. So because of this I try to keep my sharing limited, and for the Vermillion area I don't need assistance finding fish, but if anyone would and would send me a PM, I'd be happy to share what I know. Hope that answers your questions.

I'm an explorer not someone who goes and fishes boats, I try to avoid best I can and everyone who knows me, knows that.
that was me i recognized you from your picks and just had to politic you
