I'm game! I'm off all of the time now! October anyday. I love the beach in October but I can work around that.

Going to try the stripers on Murray tomorrow and see if I can locate them. They are in what is called the big pool area that is from Spence island to the dam. A lot of fisherman are catching them by finding schools and ripping a large spoon through the fish. I am hearing reports of limits being caught in 30 minutes. Never done this but going to give it a try. Will be glad when they start moving back up the lake. Anybody want to join me in a striper trip pm me. Don

Wednesdays are good for me too. Keep us posted.

I'm off till Oct 5. Putting new roof on bldg.. so I can store all my gear. Wife wanting
To trash it..

And I'm going out of town tomorrow.......this sucks!!!!!

I'm going Friday! That is if my wife forgets about the Greek Festival for Friday.

Mark, I am going Friday also. Jeff and I are going to see if the Shell Cracker bite has picked up. I also rigged up the Mother of all Perch rigs so if I get a chance to try it I will post results. We plan to fish Bear Creek. If the wind is an issue I will put in at Epting Landing. I learned my lesson with a stick steer on Murray when the wind is blowing a few weeks ago. Rattled my brains and a few fillings loose.
