Three guys, 10 fish by 10 a.m. Didn't hang around to get the last 2 because the wind got to be a bit much, at least for our drift sock.

All fish came on chartreuse 3/4 ounce hair jigs, minnows, stinger hook. Some fish had whole jig in mouth; some only had stinger in mouth. Short bites and a couple lost en route to the boat. Certainly could have limited if weather would have held.

Straight out from Fenwick. Run in, drift out with the south wind. Saw net swinging on the charters that were out there with us.
