  1. We (Forever Young) were out Sunday afternoon from I-Bay east almost to Webster Park and the water color (and debris) was some of the worst I've ever seen.  That west wind pushed all the Genny outflow straight to I-Bay.  We had 55-60 degree surface temps, couldn't see a ten pound ball a foot down and the color line was almost two miles out.  There were so many trees arranged along the color line, it looked like they'd been planted.

     

    We actually found a great screen 20-30 fow off Shipbuilders but couldn't buy a bite.  I doubt they could see a thing we had in the water - plus debris kept fouling our rigger cables and tripping our lines.  I heard about the bite west of the Genny but we had limited time and didn't make the run.   

  2. Rob, Great report.  The browns were active in close as well.  Upon pulling rods we stepped out into 30 ft and had a major rip off the rigger 20 ft down.  We fought it for a while then lost it  :(   I took the boys out last night and the shoreline had decent color but not as good as Sunday. It was a tough bite. The bait was in heavy again.  A few of the browns were spitting up alewives as we were netting them.  My boys were having fun catching the alewives by hand off the dock!!  WTF..... 

     

    Ever consider grabbing a season's worth, brining and  freezing them?
