    Default Delta 9-26:Sturmer, we were supposed to be striper fishing!

    Sturmer White, showed up to do some striper fishing at 7am. By 11 am we had harassed a number of dinks in and around Frank's Tract. Then Sturmer got serious. He was already on his third or fourth fly of the day and decided to switch to an iridescent blue over white Puglisi style fly, fished on his new 350 Rio line.

    Here are the results, a 4lb. 1 oz. LMB, a 3 lb. striper and a 3lb. 6oz. LMB, all within 45 minutes. Needless to say, the fly stayed on the rest of the day.

    I won't comment on what I put in the boat!

    It looks like Sturmer had a great day.

    Seems to me, you put three fish and a fisherman in the boat!
    fly: Very light artificial fly fishing lure of which there are two types: the dry fly which isn't supposed to sink the way it just did; and the wet fly, which shouldn't be floating up on the surface like that. An Angler's Dictionary.
