Default Stripers, Stripers, Stripers

We went out Monday night to the MMBT and started off trying to chunk for stripers with know luck and as the tied started ripping I decided to troll for a little while. We made it about 100 yards and had our first fish on I truned away from the bridge as I watched my buddy catch his first striper. We went back to that same spot and did the same thing 15 times catching a striper each time. We probably only worked like 200 yards of the bridge and caught our limit and a few more for fun in about an hour. Headed home and caught the second half of MNFB. Chris we have to get out when this weather clears and I would have called but the boat was loaded before I had the chance.

Sounds like a blast, any pics of the stripers? If not you can always substitute pics of strippers.

Yea we had a blast but I let my buddy who had never caught any stripers crank in most of the fish. I had more fun watching him and his dad trash the boat just trying to net one and get it into the boat. They had stuff everywhere each time a fish hit the line and it looked like they went around the boat and pulled everthing out and dropped it on the floor just to catch the fish. They had a blast and I just drove the boat and laughed at them. I'm still trying to figure out how to post pics as I'm not very good with computers. I met csvencer (another member her) who lives close by so maybe when I get him out again he can post some pics.

Great start SR! You definitely have doomed your buddy to be a striper junkie for life.

I made him come over last night to clean the fish and he was a quick learn on filleting them.

Nice catch but you need to send those big ones down to Va as we are waiting for them to arrive. Is that your Pro Line. I have a 1999 24.5 which I just purchased this past summer. It was tough to part with the V but it was time for something a litle bigger.
