Got to the lake at 2:30 and fished till dark the bite was fast and furious. Chrome/blue, white /blue, spring craw produced the best. Those Stripers are like trying to stop a dump truck going down hill with no brakes!!!LOL

What lake?
The Dead Sea aka cross
Sure pretty sunset, didn't think it was Cypress never caught a striper on cypress/bb
great catch , think I might try some crank baits. Where do you get thr trolling weights you use?
ScottV on Mississippi board has nice weights for pushing. You can use a 3 ounce egg sinker like used for a Carolina rig tooQuote:

No real ringing or technique for pulling crankbaits you could start off with 4 rods 10 pound test a snap swivel and bandit 200 or 300 series baits throw the bait out the back of the boat and stagger the rods in the rod holders where they have about a four foot spacing depending on what size bandit you're running and how deep they are they may want it 45 feet out or 125 feet out set trolling motor at 3/4 full speedQuote:
