Debris from Dolly

[GLB-1]

Howdy.  A group of us come down every year, for the last 25 years.  Last year the debris from Dolly made fishing the West shoreline almost impossible.  Is the debris still a problem?

also, one in our group likes to drown croakers, the rest of us throw plastics.  what seems to be the best choice in artificals?  although with the reports you guys are posting choice may not be a problem.  We will be coming down on Sunday staying through Thursday

Glad to hear the water has cleared up, it's been a long time since you could really see yur feet.

Thanks for the info and the great forum.

Most of the west shore line is ok, just be careful north of the sunk barge on the East cut. About ¼ mile north is: TWO pieces of debris. Both are marked but not very well. One is a wood structure the other is a steel frame. One is marked with PVC the other steel piles.
You guys have a great trip, but PLEASE release those big trout so we can keep the bay on a path to her former glory. That of course unless to get you a real trophy and want to mount it. Good possibility! As far as colors, light colors on clear days and dark colors on cloudy days.
Just don’t get in a hurry, does not take long to get 5 trout. We have our guests who want to keep trout, keep 4 then wait until later in the day and take their 5th. This:in case you kill one. We are also bending all our barbs down on jig heads and using single hooks on our top waters. It’s a hoot to catch 17 to 22 inch trout all day.
Make sure you have all your safety equipment , Game Wardens are on the the water everyday. The tickets are flying on double dippers and over limits.
Stop by when you get to town and I’ll give you a heads up on what’s working the best and areas.
Later

Thanks for the heads up about the debris and the Game Wardens.  We try real hard to never give them an excuse to write a ticket.  Catch and release should be a whole lot more fun than the last few years where catching was the hard part.

In 25 years of fishing in PM I have never purchsed a map, cause you just don't need one, however the other day a fellow mentioned Long Island Slough.  I've never heard of this spot.  Can you tell me where it is?
