Amen brother!

Lures or bait Ken? Could you elaborate on what was working for you?

I usually use a 4oz. Braid Slammer Jig (color does not matter) and it is tipped with squid.  Used braided line #30 test. Jig it up & down on the bottom.

But, last time out used a 4oz topedo sinker and a j-hook.  Hooked up anchovies & squid.  Squid was easier to get bites on.  You had to be real quick with the anchovies.  Just hit bottom and reel up a couple of turns.  Look on your fish finder to see if it getting higher or lower.

You get a snag try to paddle back up hill to get it out.
