Lines and spots

[Idunno]

Went fishing in my neighborhood tonight and thought I saw lines and spots:

We fished for three hours, from 7:30 till 10:30 pm. We were throwing back 23" stripers and 20" specks because we didn't want to clean that many fish.
All fish loved a 4" smoke colored Trout Killer.

Not crappie...the dark side.

Nice bunch of fish. I like the Lucha Libre mask, helps keep the stalkers away!

Comes in handy for late night/early am parking lots....who is robbing who? It is hard to mess with a person wearing a mask like that. I don't care who you are.

Great fish! Where did you go? I would love to get into some "Lines and Spots" myself just not sure where to go and how to (what to use, etc.) fish for 'em yet. I am hoping to change that soon though.

Hey Brian,

The Elizabeth River is loaded with them. I like Trout Killers, Fin-S and Storm lures. Any launch will do. I fish at night around lighted cover.

Dean,

Thanks, I have a lot of those "style" for bass fishing. Now I am seriously thinking about heading out one evening...just gotta convince the wife.

Tight lines,

I always found that night fishing fit the family life best. I could fish while everybody else slept--night fishing rarely conflicted with family activities. You just have to stay awake the next day, during family fun. That is the hard part.

Most of the time when I throw those lures, I am dragging them very slowly along the bottom, trying to feel each bump on the bottom.

Sounds good to me. I will be trying this weekend I think. How do you fish the lights? Just cast into it let it sink and slowly reel in?

Im very jealous. I love saltwater fish and calm creeks and rivers are my thing. If I have to fight waves Im done... I really need to get out. Been meaning to go to JRB one night. Dean, we have the same boat, only mine is 24" shorter, how does it fair in the rougher water. I know mine cuts a wake pretty good but its extremely light.
