Yep ! killed them gobies ......all 5 of them ......I started tossing a jointed Ralala on a 3 way set up to reach the 25 ' depths and switched to a few more lures and spoons and ...notta hit. Rockfish shows up and he gives it a good try with a few spoons and zilch hits too .I switched to bottom fishing with minnows and got a few small perch, rock bass , and some gobies ...which are now deceased ........ I even got two at once and thought I had a nice size fish . These guys are very dark ,comming from 25 to 30 fow .(Rec.canal)


And some of them bite as hard as a big perch and fight like one too ....this one is over 6" long..... ....hate to see this place loaded with these hungry parasites . I don't know where the pike are ,but the water is still very cold and clear . Think I'll wait until we have a warm spell before giving it another shot .
