Night Time Striper at C-Land

[apb]

Wish I had something to report, but I have not hit Cumberland yet this year

...I just finished making a few Andrew knock off bucktails. This batch is much improved over the last ones....

Must be something in the air, I was tying up some last night too. Glad to hear that yours are improving. Pretty soon I'll be call you for jigs

fished 3 hours BEFORE daylight this morning and never took a solid hit (short weak bumps, not stripes) fished live bait on the same bank AFTER daylight and got 3 limits of decent fish no bigguns but solid keepers 10-12 pounds. didnt catch many small fish this morning but i know we would have if we would have had to fish longer.
the lake is an absolute lumber yard, and i mean bad !! it was a pain in the neck trying to shine a spotlight and maneuver the boat, i am worried enough about running in the daylight right now and will NOT have my boat out of the harbor before daylight again until this mess straightens up.
p.s. when the water goes down if you see a GIZZ4 and 2 slivers in the bushes ....well just keep em. dang that was alot of money

LOL My guess is you'll get a chance to get them back sometime before June. I might try to get down there and fish a little before the gale force winds blow me off. Thanks a bunch for the report. I prolly wouldn't have went if I didn't know the fish were still close to the banks. Figured they would be but you never know with these critters...
