We fished with Harlan Smith, Bruce and Zane and his 8 year old son Jaimen last Saturday. I spoke to Harlan during the week and asked if he could reschedule his trip due to the poor fishing conditions we were having. It has been slow with a few fish being caught. Harlan decided he wanted to give it a try anyway and was looking forward to a day on the water. We have fished together for several years now and Harlan always brings the best of attitudes and some good luck. We decided to give it a shot which turned out to be a great decision. They arrived about 6:oo am and we got things together and made our way out the inlet. Young Jaimen joined me up on the bridge for most of the day helping me run the boat. What a great kid as he listened well and paid close attention to everything going on. We first ran NE of the inlet to about 45 feet of water and started marking bait. I kept going and ran out of the bait so we decided to start there. We set our lines and trolled back through the bait. The water temp was 48 degrees and the water was cloudy and green. The bait was still there, we didn’t get a touch after 45 minutes so we pulled everything in and ran up the beach about 7 miles. We started fishing in 60 feet of water and were at it for about 1 hour.
