    Keep it simple, hope one of you knows how to read your sonar. Yes American Eagle should hold some fish, also Middle Harbor shoal, any drop off area between Catawba, MH, Kellies, and SBI. I have also done well at East side of SBI. Try shallow in early mornings maybe even 5fow.

    Back to keep it simple concept. Find fish, find active fish, fish above fish with lures/ baits. Cast outside area the fish have seen the boat. Work whole boat as a team. If one person hooks up, call out and get another bait over there asap. When you hook up, try to know your count down and how you worked it back. Tell the others.

    Don't fish in a crowd, fish the outsides or downwind of the crowd if you have to. I will likely be on West side of Catawba. You can travel around if you don't find them but there are fish in front of you within 4 miles each way.

    Have fun and be safe.

    This is some great information, thank you everyone! We'll give it a go and hopefully I'll be able to report back Monday with some good fish stories!
