We used 6 tandem rigs.\u00a0 4-5 oz heavy jig w\/ a 9-11″ shad combined with 1.5-2 oz light jig w\/ a 6-7″ shad. We trolled around about 2 hours looking for signs of sea life. Finally we found a group of fish in an area to the west of James Island. We caught seven fish, all over 30″. Our entry was about 40″ and 28.34 lbs. We did not win, but had a great day on the water.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
