Lot's of life, lot's of bait, just not a great bite today.
With the wind blowing 25 & gusty it wasn't easy fishing.. Lots of Small fish that had to go back while fishing several area's.
Didn't get a keeper till 12:30 and ended the day with just a few keepers to finish it out. Drifted at 3.9 knots when the wind & tide were together!
The guys who troll told me they usually troll at 4 knots....could have put the rods in the rod holders & probably done better.
Fished in miles of Bunkers tight to the beach & didn't get a bite, the Whale we saw was very happy with his buffet though.

Wasn't only us today as the Black-fish boats had the same tough fishing!
Back at it tomorrow, don't give up! The Fat lady hasn't sung yet....
