Something all the people getting the "just missed" fish should think about...there is a difference between fishing for fluke and fishing for keepers. Put some damn bait on. Too many times I see these little dinky baits being lowered in the water, for what? Yes you'll get a fish but remember the smaller fish are more eager and aggressive a lot of times. Scare them off with a bigger bait and you'll get a bigger fish, it may take a little longer that's all. I have been on the same private boat fishing next to somebody who catches 30-40 fish almost all shorts and I had 10 or so all keepers...why? Because my bait didn't encourage those little dinks. It helps using a hook they can barely swallow too, like a 9/0 octopus, and yes I still get shorts on it just not many. If you want to catch 50 fish without a keeper it's your choice to make but realize it doesn't mean there aren't any keepers where you're fishing. My 2 cents, just something to think about.
Really...would be nice if you have something under the boat....Just my opinion....bait is bait, you should learn how to catch them sir....small or your "large" baits...... ........

Yes, thanks Mike. I also have a conflict I can't switch or I'd attend.

Math isn't my strong suit, but a quick calculation as of 11 am today shows 65% of our responses favor one of the 8 fish at 18 inch options.

I agree...you should learn how to catch them, and having them under the boat is step number 1. "Bait is bait"? I'll leave that one alone for now.
