I wish I knew what happened to the jumps. They just stopped. Some say it's due to the alewives staying deeper , not sure.
I do know the stripers are showing signs of being stressed right now, pink bellies when they are caught, very soft sluggish bite and fight. The plan is to continue to sluice through November and that may turn out to be tough on the already stressed fish.
Hopefully the hurricane tracks in another direction than here, the last few times that super low pressure came through there were dead stripers and walleye floating.
