Todays excitement/disaster

Me and Will went to pull some crankbaits today. It was slower than yesterday.. But we were picking up fish.

Then we ran through of some pretty good sized stripes and before I could get them up it was over. Broke 3 and tangled everything. While we were out of commission re-rigging what we had left they blew up busting shad and will wanted to go catch one. As bad as I hate a striper.. I couldn't tell him no so we trolled through them and he hooked up with a pretty good'un. Took him about 5 minutes to wear him down enough to get him in the boat.

Wow! Nice crappie and a nice big stripe also. Thanks for the report and pictures.

That is one nice stripe. Will done good, bet he had a blast landing that thing.

Nothin' beats spending time with the kids, especially young ones like Will!
Enjoy the time together, because they grow up so quickly.
Nice catch & thanx for posting! Dave

Man yea I bet that was a fun fight!

Great picture and sounds like fun day.

Way to go

Yep!

Nice catch on crappie, and the young fella Will did a great job on the stripe..!! I bet someone has the fishin' fever this summer.. Lol.

Hybrid and they have a tendency to pull really hard.

Love them big smiles.

Love catching them

Great job.

Did you catch the hybrid in the Rez or up here? I have never caught one on Sardis, Enid, or Grenada. Caught a million white bass though. I have heard tales of them being below the dams here. Just curious

Way to go DAD!!!! You are da bomb! Great catch!
