I here people taking cusk all around the bandstand area right in downtown alton, I am gonna do a little fishin there. I here people doing really well on flat areas with structure. I nailed my 5 piund 13 ouncer over a flat area with some sunken branches on the bottom. kept pulling up branches, but did get a nice cusk. not a veteran of cusk fishing, duck doctor seems to know his cusk pretty well, read some of his posts, I'm sure he'll hit this one though.
