One of my big ones came from that grass line just to the left of that red line and the other came from that red dot on the point. The one on the point was in water just below my knees. That’s the cove directly south of the Pelican Lodge.

Our early bites with the smaller fish seemed to come from the edges of those floating grass lines where bait was congregating.

I’ve only fished it 3 times but all of those times we did well right on the edges of depth changes. Not a huge sample size but bait, troughs, and grass seem to be the ticket so far. The navionics app is helpful to find those troughs and I think they offer a free trial if you wanna use it to make all of them in your gps.

I fricking love that island so much but it’s hard to come up with patterns when you can’t fish it consistently. Let me know next time you go out and I may try to bring my boat so we can double the intel.
