Default Mary had a little SLAB

Got out with a couple buddies last night to the Land of the Skunks from 7pm-1130pm for some full moon festivities. Paddled around for a bit, watched Ringwood Police pull over and tow a car, then found a nice spot to set up on land near a dropoff after dark. Drowned some Herring with no luck, but found some SLABS on the feed. We jigged them up for a couple hours after dark, most of them fat, round, 12"+ fish. Biggest was this one, a nice 15", which equaled my personal best Crappie. Was hoping some 'Eyes rolled through, but none were landed. Water temps were 79 degrees in the deeper areas and 81 in the shallows. Couldn't see a thermocline on the FF, but Herring on the bottom wouldn't last more than 10 minutes without kicking the bucket.
