high winds

Post by ragansm1 »

Plan on trying to fish tomorrow even though the winds will be pretty high. Any suggestions as to how I should fish? With a CT it is hard to teel when a bite has happened. Is jigging the bottom the best way to go. Don't get to go to often so have to fish when I can. Better then going to work though.

I use a CT quite a bit when the wind is blowing. The cork is a visual indication of a bite. Even with a slack line you can see the cork go down.
What was I supposed to do today?

Fish 'em both ways. Whatever starts catching fish first, stick with it. Even if I am fishing on bottom I will let a CT trail behind the boat.
