I'm not getting to fish this year. but this time of year I recommend starting around 74' of water and fishing deep. if the wind allows try trolling north 1st. we just run straight north out of the harbor. we use large spoons with lite bite slide divers but just use a 7' leader. our absolute best spoon has been the Dreamweaver dw purple alewife spoon. but we use a lot of spoons with purple but catch many fish on other colors. we run 2 downriggers set at 50' and 55' and the bandit sunspot has been the best crank on our riggers. 2.7 to 3.0 has worked great running spoons. purple is always a good color add a little black and it's FISH ON.
