more stripers

[pete]

just when i thought the striper fishing was about to die off, they flared back up. i went this morning, and in 7 casts, caught 7 keeper sized fish bottom fishing. This was by far my heaviest limit of the year. i kept the first 4. they all went from 23-near 25 inches. then i released 2 others and gave one more away becaues he was gut hooked. i was going for 8 in a row, but my line broke on the cast, and i figured it was time to go anyways.

the damnest thing was that i was the only one catching them....what was i doing different?? was it the old bait?? was it the distance i was casting?? or was it because i was the first one there?? ....i guess i was just holding my mouth right :D

by the time i packed up, there were over a dozen people fishing there and nada one caught a fish the whole time.

well, being a tried and true veteran of crappie fishing with you pete, im not suprised its your hook thats gettin the .most action. I remember one night earlier this year when you and i and the beast was fishing and had a few boats around us and you was the only one visibly catching any fish. i say visibly cause i sure dont wanna upset anyone in one of them other boats if they happen to read this. the luck of the irish,, but are you irish? . its a good thing im not a pouter as id be swolled up like a big toad full of bugs most nights im fishing with you lol.
