Took my brother and my friend out Saturday on a rental boat, we threw the big baits early and only had followers on the line thru. Brother got himself a nice striper around 10am that weighed 23.6 lbs on an A-Rig, after that we trolled for the better part of the day with A-Rigs, and throwing big baits off the bow or trolling them behind the A rig only for the occasional swirls (frustrating) but we ended up picking up a Largemouth in the 6-7 lb range, fat healthy lookin most likely in prespawn stage, and picked up 2 more striper in the later part of the afternoon, the others went 8 and 10 lbs.
All in all a good day of puttin a boat around and trying to find fish without any electronics.
