Where do i start??,,,,at the beginning i guess.


Started off at abought 10 pm fishing the FAR north edge of our territory,,,,,GARY and company was at the far south end of OUR territory ,and our buddy GATBLOOD was at a set of gates right in the middle,,,With abought 60 miles between the N,edge and the SO, edge of our stomping grounds ,,all working towards each other,,,We hoped we could find the feesh.

Right off from the start we<myself and cutbait>started receiving pics on our phones of the stripers that were being landed by both garys party and gatblood,,,,,Took Us almost 30 minutes too put the 1st 1 on deck,,,abought 21 inches,,CUTBAIT drew 1st blood,,,,,,,,,quickly tossed him back ,,,,,abought 10 minutes later i hit 2 in 2 casts that were both abought the same size as the 1st,,,But we were looking for something a little bigger:Wink:,,,,,,,,SO,


, we headed SOUTH,,,,,,,,,3 more spots and 2 1/2 hrs later we hadnt gotten another hit,,,SUCKED.


We had been talking and sending pics back and forth with the ouher guys and it had slowd for them also,,,,,,,,,And to make matters worse IT WAS FREEKING COLD,,,BIGTIME!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Ice was constantly plugging up our guides,,,and making our reels stiff and causing them to just basicly SUCK!

Heres a pic of the temp BEFORE you factor in the wind chill:Confused:

Heres a pic of one of the globs of ice that was forming on our rod guide,s

Heres where it gets good==DRAMA:Wink:.


Ya see,,,,there,s this little dirt canal ,,,at a secret place:Secret:, that is fed by the duct , That we NEW had a few linesides in it,,,,AND it just happend to be on our way home,,,and WHY NOT try it since the duct seem,d to have shut off for the night.


30 minutes later we were there,,,well almost cause the mud was so bad we could only get within a cpl hundred yards of the place,,,,Had to walk the rest of the way,,,FREEZING,,LOL.


Abought 15 minutes of casting was all it took to tell me that this place SUCKED,,So i said to cutbait ,,lets call it a night ,,he agreed ,,,we each made one more cast and WHAMMO,,,,,HOOKUP,,ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZ,,,,Big fish,,,,



NOW,,,Picture this,

Hooked up on a big striper,,,10 feet up a DIRT ,muddy STEEP,,,<almost straight up and down canal bank> reel stiff like a tugboat winch,,,guides freezing up,,LOL

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ,,,,The fish was strong,,,after abought 5 or 6 minuted i had him somewhat wore out and we was able to find a spot on the bank where CUTBAIT could kind of lay on his stomach,,reach the rest of the way to the water with a pair of pliers and grab the fish by the bottom lip,,,,,,,,,,,and hopefully ,,,,with a little luck NOT get gaffed up by all those trebble hooks hanging out of the fishes mouth and NOT slip in that FREEZING water,,,,took abought 6 or 7 minutes of fumbling with this but he was finally able to pull the feat off,,,,,,,,,,,,,Were guessing conservitavely 8 lbs,,,MEGA fat,,,We either had to kill and keep this 1 fish so that we could get him back to the truck and weigh him,,,or just let him go,,,,OFF HE WENT,,,,,,,,,the bigest fish of the night,,,THE SPOT PAYD OFF,,,,,,,OOOOOO YAAAAAAAAA.


So we figured we,d make a few more casts then head home,,,,,bought 5 minutes later,,,,,,BIG TIME HIT,,,,almost pulled the rod out of my frozen hands and it was on,ZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.


Abought 10 seconds after hooking up i look over at c,bait and what di i see ,,,MEGA BENDO on his rod,,,,,,,,at 1st i thought that he was snaged on my fish cause his rod was pointing straight at my fish,,,,,,,then his fish went right and my fish went left,,,,,,,we were trying to keep our lines apart in the dark with these 2 dd stripers making mega runs,,,,,,,,,,,finally we were abought 40 feet apart,,,cut bait had his close to the bank now,,,,,,,,,,mine was still bulldoging it out in the middle,,,,,,cutbait look,d over at me and said what we were both thinking the whole battle,,,,,,,,,,, HOW ARE WE GOING TO LAND THESE FISH:Confused:,,,,Well there was only 1 solution,,,,the same way we landed the other 1.


By this time c,bait had his up to the edge but mine was still deep,,,,i told cutbait to take my rod and i headed ,,,on my belly,,down this bank with a pair of pliers to land his fish,,,,,,,this was alot harder then i thought it would be,,,took quite a while to pull off and was even harder shimmying back up the bank,backwards with a flopping DD striper with treb hooks hanging out of his mouth ,grabbed by the bottom lip with a pait of plyers,,,,,,The whole time CUT BAIT kept telling me ,DUDE,,,,Im hook,d up on a DD striper with each hand:Cool:.

THIS WHOLE DEAL WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN BY US FOR A LONG TIME,,,,In hindsight,,,IT WAS A BLAST!!!.


Now we had cutbaits on the bank and i had taken my rod back and cutbait took his turn on the canal bank,,,,,,,,,,,,Finally i had mine winded and we got a look atr him,,,NICEEEEEE,,,,,,,,Maby the fattest striper ive ever seen,,BELLY WAS HUGE!.

We could see that he was only hooked by the back trebble and that worried us a little,,,,,,,took cutbait quite a while to wrangle the fishes bottom lip without getting those hooks in his hand,,,,,,But he finally pull,d it off and we had both DD stripers on the bank,,LOL,,WE WERE,NT COLD ANYMORE:Big Grin:


These stripers were ALOT pale,er then the regular cement rvr stripers cause of the muddy water that they were in,,,,,,,,and MEGA FAT,,,,,,almost bizare FAT,,,,,,,We knew they were well fed ,,,we would find out how well later!.


We did make a few more casts but no takers,,,so we headed home abought 2 30 am ish.

This was the most memorable trip out in a long time,,,,,A BLAST,,,,,,,,,,,,The BAKO BOYS
,oooooooooooYAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Man, looking back at the problem of us having TWO DD fish on and having to land em was a blast!! Avoided a chain reaction wreck on I-5 when a CHP officer did an abrupt U-turn in the center divider with bumper to bumper 65 mph traffic. WAS CLOSE!!!!

You probably didn't notice, but when I had my fish on in my right hand and yours in my left hand and your fish had finally given up and was coasting towards us in the current I had to reel the potential slack up with my mouth.

What a way to break my brand new rod in eh? First fish brings me a 10 lber. Told you Shimano was dynamite


Was a fun night, everyone got fish, and glad everyone ended up safe!!

That is too cool. Instead of stuffed turkey you guys caught some stuffed fish! Damn they were eating good and still not satisfied and chasing lures. I have a tip for you guys. Invest in a lip gripper. Sounds like it would have come in handy. Mighty fine stripers there!

Where do i start??,,,,at the beginning i guess.

Next time start from the end.

So it sounds like,, Got home at 230 ish, no more fish, it weighed 10.2 and landed it after it drag peeled. Hooked up, nothing for 10 casts or so. Got to the 3rd spot. Blanked at 2nd and 1st.......Left at 8 pm... Trailblazer wanted to go fishing yesterday so off we went.. YADDA, Yadda

Do you remember that time at LH you gassed me out? lasted all the way to the grapevine.

One thing I have noticed with the insulated coveralls is when you fart in the suit, you may not smell anything till you take it off
