Went fishing for a half day on Monday. I started the day casting-up some nice fish that were suspended about 6' - 7 ' deep over a ledge, where the water dropped form 12' to 25'.

They were close to a point in the morning, and moved down the adjacent shoreline as the sun came up.

I threw the money jig, and Kalin's Lemon Mering and John Deere colored jigs, on 16 oz heads. They preferred the green jigs 2 to 1 over the money jig:

That thing was about 24" - 26", and big around as your upper arm. I almost kept it to make another try at filleting those y-bones out. When I caught it, all I could see was big white fillets!

I let it go.

Good luck everyone,
