fall bite starting to pick up .. silverwood!
launched my canoe from the damn, with my buddy henry at about ten after seven, this morning while launching henry casted out as he saw bait fish being chased up on the rocks... fish on! pound or two. then we made it out to the sheer rock wall across the way, cuz we saw some boils. ended up catching two more. all three were caught on crankbait fished almost like a topwater. bite died with the wind around quarter to ten
Congrats!
You mean stripers, right?
Also, was it overcast or clear skies when you were out?
Went out Thursday night. Fished from about 4:45 to about 9:30. Picked up 5 stripers. All between 2 - 3.5 lb.'s. First time fishing with a spook and had a blast!

Jmac.......can you clue me in on what a spook is?
here you go... http://www.thefind.com/sports/info-zara-spook-lure best part is they are sooooo cheap!
Spooks are about the only bait I use between sometime in August and October, then it's swimbait time but I still have a spook rod with me.
The best spooks to purchase in my opinion are not the regular old spooks, puppy's or superspook's it's the one knocker's or the rattling spooks. They have much better hardware and are only a buck or 2 more, the regular spooks have very thin hooks and unless you replace them the will bend or break quite easily while dealing with a decent size striper.
sorry ya strpers just saw ur post, blue bird day not a cloud in the sky, water temp was 68 if i remeber correctlyOriginally Posted by carpanglerdude
