Hi motownhound, i watched a DVD of a fellow fishing around the the islands area,actually nw of north bass in late May trolling cranks, but smaller ones, bomber 24a, storm deep jr's, and it looked like he was doing well, 2 fish over 11. I'm going to be out there in the beginning of June, trying to hit it at the dark of the moon and I'm going to run cranks and spoons,and meat. And let the fish tell me what they want. I will be keeping a very close eye on this site till then. Awesome people on this forum! Good luck! Tight lines
