Last year....late May...in a cove on one of the Elizabeth Islands....me and Bigcat running along in the boat....I spot 3 gulls laying down on the water in the cove as we're running past...nothing else. I said wth let's go in and snoop around-I always stop for birds like that...

We slowly motor into the cove....8' of water...I throw an olive/white popper...as soon as it landed on the water you woulda thought someone threw a freakin bomb, the water just absolutely ERUPTED with fish....ACRES AND ACRES of bass started rolling on top. OVER 5 hours until the tide changed we had 15-25 lbs bass on poppers. My freakin arm still hurts from that day

Not another boat drove by all day.

I don't think I've EVER had so much fun. Every time the tide would push us out and we would see less fish I'd motor back into the skinny stuff and we'd be back into fish.

"A cove"? Like Tarpaulin? how many coves are there?....spot burner!

Just kidding Salty...by the way, I got some needle fish from you and they PRODUCE! Nice plugs!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

no spot burning the cove is setting ancor next to the rock to the s by the light and chumming in the bass
or going way up inside amolst the middle of the bay and casting to shore
but the rip as you leave is better at times
