I hate winter pool draw downs... makes my favorite ramps unusable and makes the fish go crazy for a week or so plus i can't fish the nasty shoreline cover any more.

good luck. hope you fill the boat. still biting flukes and jerks follow gulls and downlining is pretty effective too from what i hear from some of the guys that have been out this week.

Caught with sassy shads

No thats in the hooch fishing some tailrace dams below west point down there the average striper is 10 we caught quite a few in the 15+ range and i lost 2 in the 20+ range one bent out my hook at the boat and the other flopped out my net

A few caught today on the river we caught i lost 2 in the 20lb range

no problem. i might be out there depends on my work schedule its gonna be cold and rainy saturday so dress appropriately . ive been chasing deer this week so not real sure what the hot bait is this week but i might head out there sunday and give it a try probably downlining bait is gonna be what ill do if i go

1. Find out where she lives 2. Throw a big meal at her thats easy to catch 3. Have the right tackle to hook and land the fish

no hammonds here hudsons pro shop highland marina and a few gas stations sell minnows live trout is prohibited to fish with here. i dont know of anyone who sells live shad, theyre hard to keep alive but a cast nnet and good graph will yield more than enough shad . or hudson sells bass size shiners which are around 4-7" and a good alternative to shad and easier to keep alive

Yea as long as water temp doesnt drop much the hybrids and stripers should still have bait pushed up around birds or off main lake coves that have deeper water at the mouths. If temp gets below 50 youll have to downline live bait

Flashmob jr with 1/8 oz heads or hooks with 3" money minnows or swimmin fluke jr

We put in by the marina and went to the pumping stations and the stripers had shad everywhere so thick you could walk on them we caught 12 there went back around the corner to the mouth of yellow jacket and 100's of seagulls gave em away we caught 12 there and lostquite a few couldve caught more but we left cause my fatherinlaw got wet and cold all were caught onjerks and flukes fluke with a 1/32 weighted hook in arkansas shiner and pearl chartruese and jerks were ayu color sexy shad black w chart head or red head they wanted it jerked then paused all hit on the pause

Went out today on west point with my father in law caught 22 total all stripes and hybrids biggest was 13 lbs all caught on jerk baits and flukes it rained on us pretty good so we packed it in earlier

river is decent put in at yellow jacket but use caution waters getting low or head mid lake around the marina plenty of loons and gulls around there i caught 13 today in the rain an wind nothing real big about 8lb was the biggest use a bama rig big lipless crank or mid depth crank around the gulls river channel or humps the bridges have been holding mixed stripes and green bass

Impressive . what type of wood did y?ou use

Whenever you get ready for your trip down pm ill give you a heads up on what's hot what's not on the lake i fish at least 2-4 times a week i live on the lake

yea mike the stripers are biting pretty good last few weeks. i went out Wednesday and caught two in the 10 lb range while bass fishing.the only thing is you have to chase the seagulls around to find them. the bass fishing has been pretty good too they aren't hitting topwater that much but spinnerbaits cranks and texas rigs have been deadly lately

Thanks for the support guys..

Well me and the family had to put my old rabbit dog copper down today . got hit this morning by a car after he escaped the kennel. sad sad moment he was a d**n good rabbit dog and member of the family. he was like my other son.

for sure. a cavitron caught my big fish of the year a 6-3 beauty.

I liked celebrity jeopardy with burt reynolds and sean connery also a big fan of just about all the farley and sandler skits

sorry i won't divulge anny more spoilers but i think it was the best episode so far

Where is the group gonnna go now? Will they reunite?

All i can say is omg.... so much to say about the episode. it is a great way to put the governor to rest i feel bad that hershal died and judith, ricks little baby..

Pit boss in perfection green flake bigtexan or black and blue saphire are my favorite and some people trash them but i like the sick fish also

I do a little bit of both... i only go online if i can't find what i need locally the anticipation of waiting for packages kills me
