I’m glad you asked because I had the same questions. Since it’s warming up I’m thinking the pattern from last weekend will change a little. I like the south of the rock wall idea because last weekend the reds were stacked up on the north side, and were probably on the south side too, but on the south side you have a lot more options right off the Mr. Go, which is good because the water will be crazy low.
I just hate having to launch out of Hopedale instead of Campos because they don’t have a fish cleaning station right now. I may launch Campos and just make the run.

Good info, thanks

I have to ask, how do you keep that jig head from catching the bottom? I fished drop shot yesterday with dead shrimp and I must have retied 15 lines, no kidding. I know drip shot is different and more likely to get caught, but I tried jigging a matrix shad and got that caught too. After reading your report, which was great by the way, I’m realizing that I gave up too quick on that plastic. I was using a 1/2 ounce, maybe that was too heavy?

Great Day! Thanks for the report
-
TY! I’m heading out Saturday AM, I’ll post
-
Got a new fishing buddy! Just need to dust off the boat
-
Yep, you taught me about the dead end canals last winter and I’m looking forward to that cold front

I’m going to hit Hopedale tomorrow and stay around St. Malo because if there’s no water moving I feel like I can cruise the rocks in the Mr. Go, or God forbid, last resort go to the rock wall
-
much better, thanks. I did like you said and as soon as I felt bottom I pulled up a little and bounced it. Funny thing was that when I caught my first red of the day at 2pm I assumed I was snagged because I had cast right up against the rocks and tried to yank it out. Plus, I had forgotten what a bite felt like 😂
-
No, I sure didn’t now that I think about it
-
Had a tough day. Was heading in at 2pm without even had a bite, but stopped on the rocks in the Mr. Go and put 4 22″ reds in the cooler. Last minute save!

It’s kind of funny how cleaning fish at that station is always an adventure because they have the most aggressive pelicans in the world there. I hit one with a hose one time to back him off and he just stood there and looked at me

I kept my boat at Sweetwater Marina last year but took it out in December because I remember how low that water gets out there. That’s why I went out of Hopedale the last few weeks, because you can always hit the Mr. Go if the water is crazy low.
Don’t go to Hopedale Marina though , go to Campo’s if you’re going down there, because they’re remodeling there fish cleaning station and it’s not up now. We had to go to Campos to clean our fish. I’ll make that announcement to the group in another post

I did not see or hear of anyone catching any trout.

thanks for the tip. I’ll hit all that and then some. I’ll post a report tomorrow
