Thread: Badin 8/1 ton of striper!!!!!

Fished today from daylight to 2 pm. put 25 stripers in the boat... got most between 12pm and 2 pm jigging a 1 oz. strata spoon on the bottom in 35-40 ft. of water. 19 fish came on jigging spoon, the other 6 came on bucktails trolled on leadcore. No huge fish, just average Badin fish, but it was a hell of a day!!!!!

man sounds like fun, glad ya got on'em.

sounds like fun to me.congrats.

Pretty work Rookie12. Sounds like a fun day. That's why we fish. Good job.

Never jigged for them. So use to using live bait. need to try that some time. great catch.....

good report Rookie..thanks for sharing

25 stripers in 1 day! Had to have been some more fun! Congrats.

Nice Work

I always have a jigging spoon rod on my boat for situations just like what I found today. A big school of fish held tight to the bottom underneath lots of bait. You could downline for them too, but I think they were inactive and the jigging bite was reactionary. Whatever it was.... it worked good!! I know of some guys that only jig for stripers and they hold their own with all the trollers and live baiters. I talked myself into heading back in the morning again. Weather looks like it will be right, so I gotta go!!!!!!

Awesome job, sounds like you really got on 'em.
