Well, got off to a late start . Wanted to be on the water and on station before first light (first light is ~ 5:45 am and that's prime time). Anyway, got on station (up in the creek) by 7:00 am and put out 6 boards. Note, when you are by yourself, that can take awhile...(heavy breathing ). Had boards out with flat line on outer board, then 1 oz weighs at 10 ft and 25 feet on other boards. Water temperature 60/61 deg. up in the creeks. Water lime green....looks like the alge is in bloom!

The report: 8:00 am first fish (only fish ), outer board, flat line just of the bank. No monster, but about 25.5 inches. But what a fight that fish had in em. Nothing like those I was catching last summer/fall when they were so stressed out due to low oxygen levels in the lake.

So, first Striper outing of 2010 and NO STINK on the boat and FISH IN THE FRIDG. Thinking I just might try in again this week .
