Hey Satdoc!

I started fishing by the tall dead tree and fished to the bank and back to the channel until I got blowed down to the big curve in the channel...probably two or three curves out from the bridge. I had to go make some phone calls, so I had to hang out around Point Pleasant. When I got finished, I picked up my wife at the ramp, and we headed back to the tall dead tree and fished till dark. I guess it was around 8 by the time we got the boat.

I think I may have been fishing a little deeper than 2' but I tried shallower. I had three poles and I set them out with the deepest one about 3 feet. The other two were shallower. But the 3 foot pole was the only one catching fish, so I lowered the others.

Maybe that was the reason I caught so many small ones? I mean do the bigger fish hold at different levels than smaller ones?

Anyway, ya'll put me in the right direction, and I thank you guys for that. I'll figure out the finer points one at a time.
