Clearly the West side wins the poll and I much appreciate/will definitely take the advice.
Have to admit I'm a bit surprised not a single vote for the Keaton Beach side. Few public numbers posted for structure sites in the 50 ft depth range pretty much south of Keaton I thought might be popular targets, though realize takes a bit of a ride out to get to them.
Just out of curiosity, can anyone compare their west side experiences versus east? Is it longer boat trips, type of bottom, and/or quality of the fishing that's so different? Not doubting any of the recommendations, just eager to learn more about both areas and based on the 100% support for the west guessing there are some significant advantages.
MANY, MANY thanks to all again!
