I hit the GOMH first. I didn't get anything, but Fishin' Granny was busting something every 10-minutes or so on big minnows. I think I missed one bite. I almost went to the Trophy because it looked like the wind was dying. Should have done that.
At the Jetty, a group was getting ready to head out on the North Jetty and two young guys and a chick were fishing Center Jetty with leeches. South was open so that is where I went. I dropped a box shortly after I left the car. Some good Samaritan put it up on the KIA and it stayed there miraculously. There was no wave action to speak of just a light chop. I spent over an hour trying for smallies. At one point I did see some minnow on the surface and I saw a fish porpoise (sucker???). The two young guys got 3 or 4 eyes. Another young guy fished the Center Jetty. It looked like he was throwing for bass. By 9:30 I was all in for eyes. The two guys and chick left by then. I lost two bites on the blue/chrome Rippin Rap. The guy on the Center Jetty caught an eye and left shortly thereafter. Two chicks who weren't fishing hung out on the Center Jetty with a third chick fishing the North Harbor Mouth. I got two eyes in the last 20 minutes on the Perch Rippin Rap. I got the last bite at 2 to 10 so I was done. I was on my last cast before I was going to make one final lure change.
I decided to go back to the GOMH and it worked out because there was gold there. I got 4 (22,21,19.5,16) on the Crackle. I also saw a bowfin swimming along the rocks.
