Put the boat in the water at 1pm today...fished about 4 hours....caught and released 5 very nice stripers...had to be home by 6 for dinner. Can only imagine what I'm missing as it gets dark!!!! Fish are still in the creeks...I hadn't fished in over almost 2 months and they were right where I left them. Have plenty in the freezer so we took pics and released them. 14lb stripers are hard on a 10 year old LOL...but he had a great time. If you know how to find them, you don't have to get up so early this time of year!
