We've got 13 fisherman from Ma. coming up for the Great Bensom Derby. Can't wait. I fish singing cedars all summer and have good luck. Probably fishing closer to Chipmans point for the derby. Hope to see ya there.

there was 4 of us. i had 30 jacks for me and a friend from 6' of water out to about 12' of water and only got a couple in shallow, most were 8-10 feet of water. the 2 other guys had a similar set-up and got all of them in about 6' of water, right next to my shallow jacks. when i cleaned them i found bass 8-10'' bass in 3 of there stomachs. i've never found a bass in one before
