Striper Slayers – Wednesday July 27th 2011

Rick and I hit the lake for a late PM trip and it paid some big dividends. As expected, the fish were “on” from 5:00 to 7:00 and we boated 16 during a 1.5 hour run. The big fish of the day was a 16 lb’er that hit my small swim bait. Silver spoons, hopkins and small Daredevils were also producing. Five fish were trolled and eleven jigged so overall we did well.

No doubt the fishing was better today since we put decent numbers on the boat in a short time span. But we still didn’t see any major schooling. In fact, the schools we saw weren’t as large as some we saw Tuesday. The big difference is that today the fish were hungry and more ready to eat.
