Striper's 7/4
Hey everyone,.... Went out to the lower American, this AM, just to hang out with David Lee.... . Hadagreattime The water was clear/cool, Just right for wading wet..... Got there 'bout 7...ish The weather was clear/warm. A very pretty day. Lotsa ducks/geese around to watch....
We both started with Shad colored flies.... No hits, nothing, nada David changed colors, patterns, etc.... I stayed with the Shad thinking that if David got a pick-up, I'd switch.... Well, David got a goosegg while I, on the other hand, got a monster strike that opened up the Gamakatsu jig hook I was using.... That thing just stayed down and shook 'is head. Couldn't hardly budge 'im.... Finally got 'im to hand eyeballed the length/girth and released 'im.... Man Those STICKFISH really know how to fight good.... :P :P :P
Watchin' David cast is really interesting. He can nearly toss his rig onto the opposite bank and the fly lands neatly laid out even while using a shooting head....(I mean, this guys good )
Get out there and fish, guys.... The STICKFISH are bitin'
