Striper fishing during the upcoming cold front

Peter: Were you talking with fishermen in another boat while you were landing your second fish?

Yes. Was that you?
Two guys in like a 19' alum V hull. Maybe a Monarch.

You know probably went right by a couple other folks that posted here about last weekend.

Yea, that was me. I was the quiet one. My partner was the loud one. Nice meeting you and realizing it a week later. After we talked to you, we went farther up creek, (just around the next point) and caught 2 on down rods. Those fish were near bottom, but still in channel. We picked up our 4th fish on the way out, about midway in creek. We graphed fish in about 70 ft, so we dropped some lines straight down with a 3oz egg sinker. One hit it immediately and we were done.

We had a 32, 30, 24, 24. It was a good day. The first fish I caught ran through 5 other lines we had out. It took about 30 minutes to clean that mess up. That's why I was kind of laughing at you and your mess. I was glad to see that it happens to others.

The guy I was with will be back there this weekend. He and about 20 others go every Thanksgiving weekend. I'll be back as well, but this time I'll be after smallmouth.
