Swikmo,

Would it be too bold to ask what color jigs tended to work the best and size 1/16 or 1/32? And as long as I'm swinging for the fence....EXACTLY where you caught them?  ;D ;D ;D ;D

The bentos have been my fav so far this year but the berkley minnows arent to far behind. I do dip the tails in chartreuse spike it though,just the tips. I cant say one area of the salt is better than the other because I catch them all over but the far bank across from schoolhouse point is a great place to start. I look forward to your succesful report ;) Tightlines!
