All week stayed the same patterns and areas until Friday. Full moon and slightly cooled temps in the evenings moved many of the schools I had located. Relocated majority of the schools and they were fired up!

Capt'n Coop's Outlook
*Key Note to take away. On Friday right after the full moon and after we had started getting cooler nights; many of the schools moved all at one time. Relocating them is not too hard. Search for the bait, they are following the bait into late summer/early fall transition
