Saturday I had two friends to help build a bite.
We headed to the North shore of Lake LI Sound and started out in 35' with two keepers to 20", then constant action but the fish got small.
Went East and spot number two in 25 feet. Started strong, then quickly turned into nothing but tiny pecks.
Still further east and spot three in 30' provided our third keeper at 19.5 before the tide really started to rip. We even switched to sinkers, but our heart wasn't in it. Plus, it was time for lunch.
Sunday with one buddy I followed the same playbook over slightly different spots, even trying 15', and going as deep as 40', but despite many 15" class fish, we couldn't break the 16" mark.
