The hits keep on coming at the S.I.S.S.

Made a quick 20 minute stop at the Snell Isle Secret spot (on the dock side) on my way home today.

I tied on the 5/8oz Gotcha that was killing them yesterday and got right back to work. The hook issue that I mentioned yesterday was even more apparent today, as I jumped six ladyfish before I could hook one securely enough to land it on the dock.

I ended up bringing in three ladyfish in the 15" range and and a 12" trout before calling it quits. The trout stripped about half of the bucktail off the Gotcha, so I'll be curious if it continues to catch fish tomorrow. I should also note that the trout was the first fish that actually took the J hook at the rear of the lure, so at least I know it is possible.

The only other notable point was that one of the ladies I jumped was in the 20" plus range, and it felt good to have a nice tug on the line after catching all these small fish the last couple of days.
