Thread: Hill Striper Report 7-25-15

Nice catch Jay Hawk! Fine eats there too! Nice thing about trolling hardware this time of year is it keeps the boat moving and provides a little breeze! Thanks for post and pix.

Good fishing report. Thanks for the picture. What was the biggest?

Butch, I have been fishing Monticello for the cats. The bite is best from 9 to 12. Bait of choice is shrimp, bream, and herring. I use fillets from the bream and herring. 5/0 hooks for shrimp and 8/0 for bream & herring. Bigger bait catch bigger fish.
