Stripers and Bass
Certain words sound good together. Stripers and bass are two words that are starting to sound good together to me. Smallmouth and pike are another combination I like. If you are going on a trip for smallmouth and pike it is going to be good especially if it is north of the border. The best word combination though is silvers and rainbows. I did a few floats in Alaska for silvers and rainbows. I get shivers when I hear silvers and rainbows. If someone invites you on a trip for silvers and rainbows, do not be late.
Stripers and bass were the thing today. The water was 54+ degrees and it seemed like the bass were starting to move around. There was even a bit of a bass bite in the afternoon.

Wow John, you're on fire! Those are all nice fish and great shots!

The color of that water looks real good too.

The water clarity is good. A couple of weeks ago it was 1 to 2 feet of visibility which was marginal.
I don’t feel like I am on fire. Sometimes luck falls from the sky like a hammer but I cover a lot of water to find a striper. It might start getting better with the warmer water. I am heading north to OrWash at the end of next week. I bought an orange and black intruder today. Hopefully it will find me a shiny new steelhead up there.

Good luck on your trip. I KNOW you will enjoy it.
By the way.....shouldn't your stripping bandage be on your index finger? ;-)

I hurt my thumb putting a screw into stucco and needed it well protected. OrWash should be good. Lots of rain up there right now. Hopefully the rivers won’t be too high and I will get some good conditions.
