Before it got windy (25mph is just breezy, right?) we caught 2 real nice smallies and a Fish Ohio Sheepshead off Lorain. We kept losing minnows off our jigs, so we first put on a Gulp! leech, then a minnow on top of that. The leech protected the minnow...until the big ones wanted it all. 18" & just over 19". Wow, what a gale. ErieBoy75
