Awesome fishing at Rockport bad catching.
#1
Tried everything at every depth. Screened lots of fish all day long. Was skunked Thursday and caught 1all day Friday. Can anyone that's been successful up there send me a picture of how I should be holding my mouth?

Wondering what you tried for jigs? We usually do good on ratfinkees tipped with a waxy or salmon egg by the dam. Usually suspend over 45 feet and fishing 10-15 ft down.

Smallest white jig you have with the lightest jig head you have tipped with what others are mentioning. Waxy, salmon egg, or some other small bait that can hide the hook. These fish are pretty selective right now.

I was somewhat successful taking a tiny (and I really mean tiny) j hook or treble hook tipped in the skirt of a white tube with a small single use splitshot. Essentially I am making a jig head but with a very concealed hook.
