Found fish about 2.8 miles NE of the lighthouse in 32-35 fow. Marked lots of fish deep but had our best luck getting the ones around 18-20 ft down to bite. Best trolling speeds were around 1.5 mph and we use a variety of lures. Boated a few with Madeye Minnow in Icy Barbie color, a few on a Gold/Orange Berkley Hit Stick on 2 colors of lead core, and several on PWC custom with yellow belly and dots on the side. The average size was around 22" and we released a 28" mama. It was a beautiful, calm, Christmas Eve day on the water, even with the fog. We are truly blessed to be able to enjoy this fishery. Merry Christmas everyone.
