Thread: my first striper swimbait season..

  1. #1

    Default my first striper swimbait season..

    Hey everyone I'm new to the forums and figured I'd share my adventures.. Well I threw big baits from Oct 2013 till march 2014 and did not get a single bite and I was hitting every trout plant. It was rough.. I was determined though than my luck changed..These 4 fish were all caught between march- may.. All on 6oz+ swimbaits the first fish is a 14, the second is an 11 pounder and the last 2 r 8 pounders

    X_Man,

    You hung in there and it finally paid off for ya! I must have a $1,000 in swim baits and have never caught a fish on one! I guess you have to throw them to catch fish on them!!

    Congrats on the SB Fish.
