freezing cold, not a bird in sight. heavy wind. wussed out and headed in early. trying again wednesday i think.

Yea i didn't think about the front that came in yesterday I'm headed out on the river tommorro and chase some big shoalies and stripers

it was brutal! bitter cold with that wind. lots of suspended fish, but too cold to concentrate, LOL

Lol you need to layer up thermals sweatshirt wind or rainsuit wool socks and hot hands are your friends this time of year. thatshow i keep warm. nows the time to get a trophy stripe and maybe even some monster largemouth

spose to be sunny tomorrow, gonna give it a whirl i think. tuned some jerkbaits for the slow death sink. they should be still suspended , like to hook a big nasty one.

Yea I've heard bama rigs have nabbed some nice ones around yellow jacket bridge. the weather wiill be much more favorable too

didnt get out today but gonna go tomorrow, last good weather before next week. hope to do well

yea i might get out there myself tomorro but i think im gonna chase the green fish with the weather looking better. maybe go out on saturday after the rain and try for some more stripers tho if im not working.

where do you put in at? i may do a little hybrid fishing myself. starting with stripes though. jerkbait and live bait tomorrow

I put in at mcgee bridge park off vernon ferry rd

My house is less than a mile from it. its at the mouth of yellow jacket and by the marina plus its free to launch My father in law wants to fish the river too so I'm not sure what I'm gonna yet. live bait swimbaits on jig heads and jerks should catch you some

found out i was takin the grandkids to BPS for santas arrival today. oh well maybe i can get out of there without spending too much. LOL good luck today

Lol i went to the river today caught about 30 stripers and some nice shoalies

GREAT DAY YESTERDAY, FISH AND WEATHER CO OPERATED  caught several and had a great time.

At west point? Glad you finally got. on themany big ones? Jerks or did you use livve bait?

jerkbaits and live too. ticket for the day seemed to be bucktails but didnt bring any. the big ones were still elusive, but had a gret day, last day of good weather for a while it looks like. it was very pleasant and quite warm.

Good job I'm going to get out there again soon and try out some of my xmas presents .

i just got in a lot of stuff. i sell gear for a living so never get any as gifts.spent the last 7 hours going thru plugs, organizing them. 81 3700 boxes and still growing. if you use plastics, let me know i have over 200 lbs of them, all shapes, sizes, brands, colors.if you have an empty 3700 i could fill it for ya free with an assortment, maybe we can meet up at west point when it warms a bit. i asked michael if he wanted to go again after holiday. take care and MERRY CHRISTMAS, mike

Yea mike thanks i might take you up on that plastics offer. we will definately have to get together on west point sometime

merry xmas to you too bud.

just got new seats and upgraded trolling motor, as soon as that stuff is installed, i will be back out there, let me know and i will bring ya a bag of goddies.

Ok sounds good man thanks

I'm thinking about going out tuesday or Wednesday

do a little bass fishing and a lil striper too

i was thinking about those same days myself. having trouble with the mount on this new motor. release is very sticky straight out of thee box. mounted it today and is less sticky, but still not right. guess i may have to shim it some. last one was ok.maybe i can get it done tomorrow and be ready for tues oe wed. seats are another story, getting my bench out looks like no fun at all.

Yea good luck with the seats. from what i hear the stripers are still running pretty well

the lake is still pretty full only about 3' from full pool bass has been hit and miss i hear not on a real definitive pattern right now. I've been on the the river a lot lately so I'm only going off reports and what my buddies tell me.

gonna try to get out there wednesday depending on weather. if it looks good, i will pm you my number and bring a bag of stuff with me , maybe we can meet up. whatever you dont want just pass it along. would like to see it get used and i dont have enough decades left to do so. LOL thanx,mike

Sounds good mike
