Thinking it's started here too. Went last night and did pretty well but some had their fins worn off and torn up and some looked to be full of eggs. Still haven't been able to catch any shad but did good with a piece of drum belly yesterday. Caught 4 fish and missed 3 bites on the same chunk of bait and it was still on there, tough stuff.

Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

Caught 7 more blues last night, nary a bite until 10:00pm and then all the sudden it was game on. They were all identical 4 pounders and we peeled them and turned them into Father's Day grub.
As a side note I switched last week from 6/0 EagleClaw circle sea hooks to 8/0 Gamakatsu Octopus Circles. Both on an approximately 18" leader of 25lb mono, percentage of bites to hookups has at least doubled with the Gamakatsus. It is incredible how much sharper they are and 75% of the fish literally hook themselves. I have been a Gamakatsu fan for a long time while fishing saltwater but hadn't been able to find anything in a smaller size down here other than the Eagle Claws, finally rounded a couple packs up and the difference is amazing.

Gama's circles are my "go to" hook of choice in 8s and 9s. Hard to beat, for sure! Congrats on the blues! Work and chores have kept me off the water lately. From what I'm hearing from my buddy.....I'm not missing anything. The spawn is "on"... ;(
