Mike I started fishing Skis last spring on the bay ,I trolled for 2 weeks without snaggin a weed ,then one magical evening I got my first ski a 50 inch female and I was hooked,next couple of days had a few more on but never boated,again a few weeks of evening fishing went by and bamm a few more boated,I tell ya its as you know frustrating,we wrote down times winds day temps moon phase trying to get a pattern going ,now we got plans to hit the outter shoals next weekend I belive if all goes well trying different areas,different ideas,I say keep pounding the water and your time on the bay will come ,good luck in my boat we always troll one bait on the surface one diver
