Left the dock around 4pm and headed to the bait creek. Loaded up on some good sized gizzards and also a couple big alewives. Set up for my first pull around 5ish. About 5 minutes in the inside board buried and I pulled in this guy. I'd say about 6lbs. Got that board back out and finished that side.. Went ahead and pulled the other side but nothing was home. Made a quick turn around and went up the right side again to head out of the creek and had a good run on the light line out the back. I was about to make the final turn before I packed up and the inside board buried again and I hauled in this 26" fattie. We've been hearing a lot about a creek up river holding fish so I decided to head up that way to check it out. Pulled a couple of points before it got dark but only had a short run on the light line out the back. I'd like to give a big thanks to my uncle "reel deal" for taking me under his wings and showing me what striper fishing is all about. Also thanks to everyone on the forum for all of the tips and knowledge that has been put in.

WOW! You caught Alewives during daylight hours! Nice work... I thought only Yam could pull that off. "Alewives are next to impossible to catch during the day"
Yam in action 3:30 mins in:

Fishon, I am far from the skill level as Yam so I'm going to blame Tim Wade for making me such a great net!!
