Damn there's a lot of people going.  I was thinking about it ...

But I think I might take the bug wand to the forebay and get some practice in before BAM.

Allen - the Forebay will stay open year round....might as well try fishing a place you've never fished before.....unless you wanna wait till next year to fish it again....

Swells don't look great - I'd love to go, but I HATE big surf! Good luck out there!
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...

I'm kind of up for a lazy day on the lake kind of day, so I'm on to hit the Forebay.  Off to pick up a fly rod ...

Guys,
 Should anyone be chickening out and heading futher South or North for the seasons finale?
 I do not have the experience w/ Bean Hollow to translate this weather into launch conditions.
 What do you folks think?

I may not go because, I got skunked for the first time on bait!  I feel naked without my pet shiner and smelt.  Duane is it the minus tide tonight that did me in?  The water was less than 3 feet deep and there was really little cover for the fish to hide.

Luis,

You don't need live bait.  Bring: frozen squid/anchovies/sardines/octopus...take your pick.

No, don't cast for bait when the tide is out.

Good luck, sorry I won't be joining you guys.
