    I had the pleasure recently to host the “Wish You Were Here” crew on the Cumberland River. It was a beautiful morning then “kabam” with host correspondent Rafferty Clearly nailing the largest Striper of the 2022 season!! It was a super fat 48 inch fish / 31 inch girth that inhaled a big 17 inch Trout!!! We didn’t weigh the fish as it took a minute to get the hook out and we wanted to get her back in the water quickly! But my gosh, what a gut and big horse head!! We released the big Striper healthy and swimming off strongly!!

    I hope you get a chance to see the episode!
