Frank......be patient.....it's still not working yet (the fish I mean )
my partner and i fished there on wed. am early.....fish were hitting the surface ....same result for us ....we threw spooks and punkers... no top water action.....water temps were between 62-66 I believe still too warm . last year our great action at o'neil began early november with water temps closer to 60 and below.....we did get a nice 21/2 lb largie and one "barely" 18 inch legal....both on 4 inch swimbaits.....keep trying it won't be too long. surfk9
