Other Notable catches this week:

Tactics/Bait: Inflated night crawlers, red/gold Thomas Bouyants and Powerbait Mice Tails were the hot baits this week. The most effective Powerbait colors were garlic cheese, fluorescent red and orange. The most productive spots this week were the South Shore and Windy Point.
