YES we take 3 scoops per person for a charter and they are very healthy scoops, and we didn't have that maney left, like troy or I said it was up and down, hit bottom and reel, but alot of small ones we threw back, and in moring the farm aminals are there with the white perch, try it out there its alot different than western end. We are using 2 oz sinkers to keep it down, skipper nine rigs two or three hook, hits bottom and it fish or strip hooks no waiting.
