Left my hat at home, forgot my sunglasses in truck. Wind howling. Hit a school of 6" stripers that completely cluster f@#%&∞ my lines. Retied hit another school, another do over. Picked up 3 keepers then whitecaps started. Pulled up and headed to try pullin the river. Nothing doing. Let the 3 hostages go and headed home to lick wounds. Better forecast for tomorrow so I will be back at em in the morning.
Doh, thats too bad. But pictures woulda certainly been cool! Actually video, woulda got a million hits.
I tell ya, I thought me dog was gonna have a seizure. With all poles bouncing with fish on, fish floppping all over the boat., he did not know which direction to look or where he needed to go to get out the way. I tell ya what, it is a pain to reel in one rod and have all the lines from both sides of the boat attached wiyh fish on every line. At least when all are 6" stripers. Had it been keeper specks no problem.
At least ya tried it, We went yesterday put in early at Lemon Bluff & made the run to Harney since wife said I didn't have to be home until 2 or so. We fished the lake for a few hours til wind blew us to the river, caught 17 kept 9 - big fish was 2lb 1.5oz. Will post some pics tomorrow or Sunday of the weekend.
Plannin on makin the run to Crescent in the am:fish the wind report looks ok.
Could be worse.
Ya don't know if ya don't go. I'll be out in the morning bright and early now that I don't have any company with me tomorrow.
Look me up. I will be launching from Lake Monroe Park. Should be there waiting on gates to open. Prolly have my wife and dog along. Crappieday hopefully will be in line behind me. Will be trying to fish the Enterprise side along north shore.Quote:
