Fishing between stroms has been good. Average size of fish has been impressive around the 3 3/4-4pound average. Lots of food still exists on the rock reefs for fish to dine. Clouds of young of year all over the rocks, and it seems like a banner year for crayfish. Many of the fish we're catching are coughing up crawdads and minnows. Fish are being taken on mostly soft plastics and some on top. Shannon Jacobson and a friend were out last week and caught several nice fish on plastics....he lost a nice fish on a black topwater.

Dont forget a great pair of sunglasses like the Ocean Wave bandanda will put fish in the boat. Try your luck in winning a gift certificate for a pair of the Worlds Best Sunglass....see my web site home page for details

August should be a great month for numbers and size of fish....remember...if you dont chase em....you wont catch em.
