Had a cpl hrs to spend fishing{FINALLY}:Big Grin:,,,So i headed out to a siphon near BUTTONMILLOW ,,the temblor siphon off low,kern rd.

Fished there for abought an hr and only had 1 follower,,a 20lb+ carp,,trying to eat my WHITE FLUKE ,,Couldnt beleave it,,he kept hitting it all the way to my feet where i got a really good look at him,HUGE:EyePop:,Then he just swam off 35 to 40 in long,,,WOULD HAVE BEEN A BLAST TRYING TO LAND HIM,,LOL.

Off to the 2nd and last stop,,,THE BUTTONWILLOW GATES Off hwy 58 and low kern rd.

Turned out to be my money spot:Smile:

Seen TONS of silversides up against the gates,DOWNSTREAM side.

Tied on my silverside look alike, LC 128 And started casting,,,HOOKUP
ZZZZZZZZZZZZ ,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Way bigger then our avg fish.

This fish had MEGA STRONG SHOULDERS, great fight.

4 or 5 min later i had him,,,,26 1/2 in and SUPER FAT and THICK.

Never have i seen a striper of that length have the girth that that fish had,,,,,The pic dosnt do him justice at all but here it is anyway,,,7lbs 11 oz on my nabors digi when i weigh,d him at home.

That was the lightest wt of the 3 diferent scales that i weighed him/her on,,but all were with in 4 oz of each other

Who did you fish with?

TB tells all. HAHAHA those things came from the A/V.. No Bako fish are that big.

Glad you got some fish. Been worried sick about you not catching anything in awhile!!!!

Was afraid you took up golf or something

I still think the cell phone pic does this fish more justice than your "trick photography" attempts!

BTW, the "barrel" body this fish has looks awfully suspicous to me. I know you have been playing around with the idea of painting a carp and putting stripes on it. Then earlier in the post you talk about a carp that slammed your fluke!

coincidence???

I like when the fish start getting to that size and the scales and the stripes near the size start getting a "deeper" texture.

I also like the circular disformation of the stripes on the second fish

That's a real fatty for around here! Great job! Now that tourney season is over until the end of January, it's time to hit up the DUCT. Maybe we can hookup and head out one of these days!
