With the cold weather on the way for our area tomorrow, it looked like today was the day to go fishing. I was worried that the full moon and the approaching weather might jack up the bite but when your day off calls…you gotta go fish for a bit.
I had a dozen medium trout from “The Dugout” ready to go in the tank when I hit the water at 7AM.
Due to the wind kicking up around 11, I only fished 2 areas today. Both had Striper that were willing to eat so that made my day. 2 Stripers to the boat…one 10 and one 12lbs….and a nice Spot.
Everyone swam away healthy.
I had a couple of break offs today which has me considering going to 20lb main line.
Water temp was about 50 degrees.
It was stained water near the island running up river…lots of BIG debris too.
Not a bad way to start 2015.
Cheers and good luck out there.
