the patterns have been way off this year... they should start following the shad up into the bays and creeks shortly. You fishing north, mid, or south?? no specifics. but it makes a difference.

[mako1]

yea . i fished the south end. fished the same places saturday and got 1 bite. not sure what happened. had some rain come in friday afternoon. didnt get a bite after that. i saw lots of shad though.

Those YMs are the tits!! I broke off on a fish once and 5 minutes later the bait with about 15 ft of line popped up about 20 yards down from me.... needless to say my cussing probly scared the fish into letting the bait go. lol.

[mako1]

yea i was waiting for that but i think mine is stuck under the grass somewhere

[SaltERedneck]

What size weight you punchin with?? 15' of grass?

[mako1]

1oz. grass was anywhere from 5-12ft. prolly could of used a half ounce to let if fall a little slower.

[mako1]

tried to punch with a jig but didnt get any bites on it

[Cappy]

I'm gonna guess the cold front passed over there Friday night. Fish always bite good before a front but once it passes they qauit for a couple days. The front didn't get east over here till Sunday but yall being west get it first. That was prolly the Friday night rain ya mentioned. Aint nothing like a front passin to give 'em da lock jaw.

[mako1]

actually saturday was a great weather day to. a little more sunshine. but it wasnt cold. front didnt hit till sunday here either. the fish were just bunched up in spots. u might go 50yds with out a bite then catch 5-6 in a 30yd stretch.

[Cappy]

Lol, Das why they call it fishin'. I love trying to second guess them but seldom get it right. That's the fun of it for me. The weather is wonderful today in the low 70's and ya can feel the humidity gone. First real Fall day.

[T and F fishing]

Any particular baits that you were using for topwater and punching the grass ?
