📋Window Prep
Arrive early and catch the first fish. Use Surface Slap, Chum, and then wait until the window opens (which will be when the fog goes away).

🎣Catching
As the fog clears (or at XX:01 after the hour) – cast back out. Do not attempt to hook any ! or !! bites. By letting them go this way, we preserve our Surface Slap. Use Chum in between casts and hi-cordials as needed.

Once you get a !!! bite, use Hook. Sweetheart *may* get away, and if it does just use Chum again and keep going. If it doesn’t get away, congratulations – you’ve just caught a sweetheart of your own.

Good luck and happy fishing!
