Nothing but grunts and pinfish again! Oh well it was better than being at work. You know what they say "A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at the office"

It was slow today. I fished from about 10:30 to 4Pm.  I didn't have much until about 2:30  when all the police cars were headed to GB.  Then it was slow but steady until I left.  I ended up with a 48 qt cooler of Wtrout, 4 blue fish and a 26"red.  I got cut off three times by some mystery fish.  Boy was it ever slick and hot.  I should have taken the kayak today.

If you are fishing the 3 mile bridge and want some white trout try the 3" penny colored gulp shrimp. I don't know why but I haven't had much luck with this bait till I fished the 3 mile bridge. The gulp bait outfished live shrimp 3 to 1 for white trout.

I would have to agree with you.  For the past two years I have had the same experience.  You can also use the "natural" gulp, but the "molting" ones are only as good as a live shrimp.  I prefer to use the 1/4 ounce red jig head with a white eye.  They will also out produce bull minnows and elwys under there. You don't even have to worry about jigging them correctly when the bite is on.

I life without fishing is one not worth living

I have to put in a vote for the Gulps!  I have caught numerous white trout and specks on the Nuclear Chicken and New Penny 3" baits.

but if you want to save a little $$$ use the gulp to catch first trout and sacrifice him as cut bait....trout as cut bait will catch "most" anything out there and just as well as gulp. IMO
