    Tube jigs,jigging vertical in 20 feet of water with a stumpy bottom Fish where about 3-5 off the bottom. They are VERY tightly bunched into small area's.
    Drift VERY slow,using a sea anchor if you have one and stay in the 20 foot range. Trow out a marker when you pick up a fish and THROUGHLY fish the area.
