We did the Berry yesterday and braved the wind all day and what an awesome day of fishing. White and rootbeer tube jigs with smelly jelly and a chunk of worm worked all day whether we drifted or trolled in mostly 20-40' of water. The wind died down around 5:00 and the fishing was off the scale! We had three and four on at one time for almost an hour. It was chaos in our little boat. Kept a couple for supper, one 23 incher and three 12 inchers. The little guy on the boat caught the biggest fish. After sleeping in the bottom of the boat for most of the day. He decided to get up when the wind quit blowing and we started catching fish fast and furious and his first cast he hooked the 23 incher. Fished just across the bay from the Renegade boat ramp. Also kept the teenager interested by baiting a buch of crawdads. Great day to be a fisherman!
