Arrived just before 6AM and found a nice spot on the bank. Beautiful sunrise and morning. Caught a small one right away (about 8"). Had a couple of strikes over the next hour but lost them fairly quickly. Then caught another, larger one (about 14"). Green power bait on a #8 hook floating about 2-3 ft off the bottom. About 8AM the wind picked up and it got cold and I'm sure the barometer was dropping. Stuck around for another half hour then left as the fish seemed to have lost interest in me. Overall, it was a very pleasant morning at Padden although I filled a shopping bag full of garbage I collected within a 15' radius of where I was fishing: beer bottles, Red Bull can, about 100' of fishing line, food wrappers, Power Bait "freshness" covers, etc. What a bunch of slobs. Anyway, photo above was not from today but from opening day at Padden where I (and I'm sure everyone else) caught the limit.
