Took the boys out for a few hours Sunday. Had several bites bass fishing but couldn't land a single one. They wanted to mainly look for striper jumps. We only saw two relatively small groups come up and got to them in time to make exactly one cast each. First jump, both the boys hooked up. My lure got smacked probably 6-7 times (sometimes knocking the bait a foot out of the water) but I stuck none of them. They pulled two nice keepers out of that school. Stayed there for another half hour but never saw the school again. Then ran into a small school jumping on the main lake and we got exactly one cast in them before they went down and hooked up a 3rd keeper. Not bad considering how few schools we came across. It's been 3 years since I can find a school that will stay up longer than 60 seconds. Maybe that will change this year but usually I get there too little too late. This time we found a little success (well the kids did anyway. I got skunked).
