We caught a dozen big fish using tuna clones and lost a couple but the guys with bait were filling up early going to have to get a bait tank for next year.

what is the basin fishing?
Title: Re: Westport
Post by: buckhorn2 on August 31, 2014, 07:59:29 AM: Inside the south jetty for bass and inside the boat basin for jacks and silvers. A small school showed up a couple days ago about 20 fish the high school kids raise them in net pens and release them and they come into the basin then spawn in close streams. Hope they show good this year there is a derby and sometimes schools as big as 500 silvers around the docks fun fishing I caught 42 off the dock last year.
