Fished the Strawberry Bay side from the shore in the shallows where all the moss is. Fished the morning from 9 till 2, got some lunch and came back late afternoon and finished up till around 9 pm. Caught 16 total, had about 10 more on that came off. All cuts between 19 and 22 inches. I was using a Yozuri Pins Minnow with a hefty jerking action. Some fish were caught less than 10 feet from shore in about a foot of water. We walked pretty far along the bank, when ever we saw a fish surface we'd cast to the ripples and the fish would hit. The deeper the water got, the less fish we caught, so anyone trying to catch them from shore sitting in one place wasn't productive, fish one spot for a few casts, if you don't get a hit, move 30 feet down the shore and keep trying. If you start getting to deeper water with less moss on the bottom, walk back and try some more or drive to a different location. Anyone want more info send me a PM. The fish in the first pic was 19". The size looks deceiving since the fish was squirming pretty good and I wanted to get him in quickly back into the water, so we only took pics of 2 fish.
