Came down this weekend and got the Ice Broke!!! Went to captains quarters Saturday and got two redneck planer boards, hooks, swivels, and some lures. Put a light out on our dock and woke up at 3:30am Sunday to realize I didn't know how to throw a net and that the old 3' net I had is junk and way too small. I did manage to catch 15 alewives and 2 gizzard shad. Put them in the bait well. Got to the dam around 7 after getting my brother in law and father moving. Pulled 2 light lines off the back and a board on each side. It wasn't 10 min. after putting the lines in I got this 28" Striper. Man it was awesome. Ended up hooking another that got off right by the boat. So now I know I need a good cast net some more boards and a couple more poles. I really hate having to work this week I think I need more practice fishing. Thanks for everyone's help with boat and tackle suggestions. oi66.tinypic.com/2rq0hz8.jpgoi66.tinypic.com/2rq0hz8.jpg |

Oh that is wonderful. What a great way to spend a morning. Maybe this is the beginning of the striper catch coming back.

You will need a PT job to support your striper addiction!
