WTG fireball, did you try the owner circle hooks yet? If you go back again try that spot you saw me at last year(dec 28) there were a lot that size in 60' of water.

That makes sense now. I did release them yesterday because I didn't want to fillet them and everything. It is just so much easier to release them.
It was nice to meet you and CowPatty too!
Cool. How did you guys do? There were quite a few boats over there. Sometimes the striper hiss at me while they are releasing air, lol. I like how they really start fighting at one point. They are more fun to fight than LMB once you get them to that point.
Thanks Gary!
I didn't get the Owner circle hooks, but I got some other ones. When I went to Sport Chalet they only had some weird Owner circle hooks (not mosquito or octopus) so I didn't get those and got some Matzuo Up-Eye circle hooks (which look like octopus hooks). I am still on the look out for Owner mosquito circle hooks! The circle hooks worked wonderfully! They were perfectly set in the top lip or side of the lip every time while my rod was in the holder. They fixed the buoy line, so now you can't go back to that area that you guys were fishing! I am probably going to hit the upper lake again this weekend since I got my annual pass finally.
You guys are all wrong about that thing out of the jailbird's mouth, it's the tongue!!
Best tasting part of the fish, hands down.....J/K, lol....
Great catches there and fun to be out with the pops.
Nice job on the stripers!
That's a STOMACH sticking out, not a bladder. Just to reiterate for the experts that insist it is the bladder.
By the way, don't forget to "fizz" your stripers.........in HOT oil!
