So, it was 10:00 pm, and my buddy parallels the bank so the boat is literally five inches from shore and says, “hey, yankee-boy, whatch this.” Three casts later, he’s gotta hog…
Ok, we were throwin’ 5″, jointed Red Fins -but if you can get the discontinued 5″, jointed Thunder Sticks… you’re way in business, y’all (“hey” for yous guys).
Strike zone? 10″ inches from the bank. “What if I go past that 10″ strike zone?”
“You’ll see.” “Oh, and loosen your drag.”
“What?”
Got my first striper! Wow, let me tell ya that an 18″ striper out plays anything I’ve ever caught in my life!
Prime time to fish? 10pm till the shad stop popin’.
So, if it works down here in the Lil-Ol’-South… would it work up there? Well, go try it and let me know. Reel real slow just so there’s a wake on top.
Oh, fish rip-rap banks that have at least 2 to 3′ at the shore.
Hmm, also, I’ve slipped from time to time into saying, “do what?” when I’ve not quite heard what y’all said.
Well, gotta run. Gotta take the little princess to Driver’s Ed… Lord have mercy!
Thanks,
OTW
