Ain't crappie but what fun

Attachment 307044 couple of weeks ago before TVA had to dump a bunch of water the stripers were on Caught 18 (not all this big but close) in less than two hours below Loudon. At least 6were doubles. Close to the dam using threadfin shad, drift down then do it again. Only kept four. Exciting times

That’s some good fun, for sure!

Fun times for sure!

Looks like fun!

Did you gut shoot that one? rotfl

Shhh don't tell about the gut shot

Nice catch, keep them all!

Are them stripes worth eating?

Good eatin?,,, Oh yeah,,, , they have a brown streak in the meat you have to cut out or it's too strong. There are some good YouTube videos that show how to filet them and cut that out. Fried some up the other night and my wife said it tastes like blue cat to her just a little denser consistency

Sounds like some serious rod bending action. WTG!

Sore shoulders and elbows on those for sure. Congratulations on a great trip.

Ok thanks. I throw back them blues. Only thing I'm looking for is flats and all I want off of them is the belly meat. Have to give away the rest. Friends love it though.
