		Monday will be my first trip to Massacre Rocks to fish...from a boat.  We have a 17 foot modified V with a 30hp motor, will that handle the water OK?
 
I like to spin fish and use fly-gear.  Any tips or suggestions?

		your boat will be fine unless the wind gets blowing to hard. It always seems to blow in that country in the afternoons.
I would try crank baits. We did pretty well on them a week ago.

Hey, thanks for the info.  The fish seemed to be in a neutral mood.  We had to fish plastics and small streamers SLOW.  This was a challange to a couple of stillwater fishermen with the current at MR.  We did catch a few larger smallmouth, one was eighteen inches.  
 
Thanks for your help.
