Thread: Murray tomorrow

From what I hear the Stripers are red hot right now. I talked with a fellow from the Midlands Striper Club this morning at Dooleys. He said they were hitting white Bucktails with a stinger ice jig about 18" below the Bucktail. Caught his around the Boy Scout Camp in the AM with cloudy skies. He said once the sun came out they quick hitting on the surface. Watch for gulls feeding to locate schools.
I have not been in awhile so I don't have first hand info, but the area he mentioned is where I fish for crappie and white perch.

He is right on, we killed them there tuesday!

Hopefully the crappie or wp will cooperate, I have no interest at all in stripers..............Don't know why, I just don't care to fish for them.

I didn't either until a buddy fried some for fish tacos and they were outstanding. For some reason I always thought stripers were not good fried. If I had any I made a chowder with them. After learning to can tuna and salmon, I want to try canning Stripers if and when I get any.

Good Luck tomorrow! I wanted to go tomorrow but didn't get done what I needed to do plus wife wants to get the Christmas tree. I'll try for the following day.

Thanks........ Weather wise Sunday will be the better day, And since I'M going tomorrow you can bet Sunday will be good..............

Yea that's why I'm not upset. I think the high tomorrow is in the mid 50's and Sunday is 65. But you never know unless you go!

If the fish are bitin that adds about 10* to the temp. If not it feels awfully cold.....HAHA.... I put a new SS prop on the bout several weeks ago and been really wantin to try her out.........

Ray, years and years ago when I lived in the Charleston area Dad would put in the tail race and hang out in front of Rembert Dennis's house and burn up the stripers schooling...........But only did it when they where hot. I was just a kid, but it sure was fun.
