Bay trolling reports

Per the "lock jaw" comment in Huron area, I fished here today and saw active fish all day long, and several hours tonight, but it was a grind. With night not producing at all! Largest was 26", 7lbs.

You and almost every other of the hundred plus boats in the area. Sounds like they all had lock jaw

I have desire to do this coming from the South Bend Indiana area...never been or done before. I see 35' of water but how deep in 35' of water are the fish stacking? Thanks everyone.

I didn't catch many, nor do I regularly fish this area. That said, I believe most action was with lures in the 20' range. A bandit for example being 100' back from the board. With the slow bite yesterday, I had them scattered from 15' to 30' during the afternoon while also going very slow. It looked like other boats were basically drifting west to east at a speed of 1mph. I don't night fish, but in my attempt I switched to P10s and tried moving in closer to shore, but didn't see the marks or the bait. I noticed a lot of people on the pier/shore though as you'd expect on a calm night I guess. During the day there were areas with few marks, but as I've tried to indicate in the attached picture most of the day it looked like this - or even many, many more marks. Highlighted spots had many marks.
