I fished Dale Sat. boated on SM maybe 17", one other miss on shad.
Today didn't boat a fish, maybe 3 hours each day nothing too serious.
Temps 46/ slightly stained around state dock.

Fished Friday in Indian, Boated one smallie just shy of 22". Man she was pretty. I also caught a limit of fat spots. I had to laugh at their fat bellies. Kinda looked like me after Christmas dinner. Could only fish the one day but it was a goodin.

We fished Greasy Creek area for stripers mid morning to mid afternoon on Saturday trolling with umbrella rigs. We had 8 strikes, 4 hookups, one long line release, one broke off, & netted two at 25 & 27 inches. We had one double & I think that's how we lost the one fish. It broke off when it tangled with the other line. Never had so many misses either. Usually need pliers to remove the bait from deep down but both were lip hooked. I usually fish shiners this time of year, but my bait shop was out of shiners. Musta' left the house too late.
