Striped/Hybrid Bass Action..

[DoubleGobble00]

I hit the Rez for some striped bass action this weekend and was not disappointed. I caught 12 stripers and took pictures of these 8. The other four were small 3 lb fish. I weighted the fish in the fish picture at 7.5 lb on my digital scales.... and was almost 28 inches long. That is my biggest striper to date. I wish I would have weighted that one short fat toad but I like to get them back in the water as soon as possible. All fish were released for another day! These guys pull and are too fun to catch not to release..

Thanks fellas...

Yellowdog-this time it was cranks... They have been wanting them most the summer... I did see your new jigs.. They look awesome! I really like the green yellow and white one. Might have to stock up on some of them... They look perfect for my lake...

Here are some SI pictures of the stripers. The Humminbird Side Imaging is amazing! There is no mistaking a school of fish like this... then you just have to catch them.

awesome, I've been going up there for the last few months.Last time I caught 5 striper biggest 8.9lbs 28.5",smallest 23" 4.5lbs. If you ever see a yellow kayak that's probably me looking for those buggers.

Brickj - It took me a little while to determine what was fish, bait fish, etc. The more si snapshots you look at the better you will understand it. I have a bunch of pictures posted in the electronics forum. Do a search for my posts or click on my name and you can see all the post I created to view all the pictures. Check this one out:

Also, bass boat central has a forum set up just for the interpretation of SI images. I post there alot and it has some great info. Here is the link:
