    I was at bugwoods and mouth of beaver sat and by dam sun. Did not see any jumps. Did not see many fish on graph either. What I did see seemed to me right off bottom in 40'-50' of water. Bait was hard to catch sat am and impossible sun am for me.

    Fished Monday and Tuesday with little luck. Found tons of bait and feeding schools of stripes in the very back of Wolf but they were not really interested in our shiners, I believe they were gorging themselves on the schools of baitfish which were extremely plentiful and huge.

    They were also jumping back in there Monday afternoon but were not staying up more than a minute or two. There were a couple of guys in a bass boat trying to fish those jumps; by the time they could get the motor fired up and rocket over to the school it was already too late. Pretty funny to watch though, those guys provided some much needed entertainment for us in the cold mist before a pretty chilly ride back to Jamestown.

    Finally got into jumps

    Finally got into a good jump. They stayed up long enough for us to catch 6 between 26 and 32 in. All the way in the back of a creek. It was a blast.

    3. Chrome and blue or black Zora Spook
    4. Hopkins Spoon 2 oz with bucktail.

    Striper Jumps

    FYI,

    I fished Greasy Creek this morning & did find a few small jumps. I used a baby Zara Spook to catch & take home one 27" fish.
