Took the boat out for the first time today with two of my buddies and man was it different from my 17ft G3.  Water was choppy and rain fell on us all morning, but the boat handled it fine.  There were many first for me today.  First time catching a fish there on a spinnerbait, finally caught decent size fish on a dropshot and finally caught them over 20ft deep.  Didn't catch any monsters, but after almost a month without fishing, any fish would work.  Water temp was around 58.  Now that I somewhat figured out the dropshot bite I'll venture a little deeper where the big boys live.  All this time I was expecting to feel a bite, but it's more like a slight tension of the line.  I probably missed a bunch of hits before and didn't even know it.   The bites were really soft.  Who knows, maybe it was the cold temp and weather.

Y2,

Aslo go to an Ordella Drop shot rod.
Now that will make all the difference in the world on feel.
