Got on the water about 8am & got bait pretty easy, 3" to 8" gizzards. Action started quick & lasted all day. Free lined boards on bank side & other side. Had 1 light line out the back on bobber & 4 downlines. Boards on the bank got hammered all day, boards on other side only got one hit witch was a nice one that got off. Line out the back got hit several times & got us a few in the boat. Downlines got hit 3 times with 1 in the boat. Caught 1 & lost several on swamp monkeys. Bank side boards caught the most. This was our 1st time useing big bait. We had several good runs with no hook up so I think we need to let them run a little longer but not sure, could use some tips on this, using 4/0 j hooks on planers & 4/0 circle hooks on downlines. Ended up with about 15, lost 4 or 5 & had 15 to 20 hit or chase the bait but not commit. We had a great day of fishing. Now I know why everyone looks forward to spring. Working on pics try to post some in a day or 2. ;D ;D ;D

Any idea where I can find swamp monkeys since Core Fishing isn't open for business on-line? Coming down in May for a week and trying to soaking up all the great info you guys put out every week.
