I started by checking out CG point and found nothing. Started up river and banged an exciting 14" striper just before the bridge. At least it was something and it got my hopes up. Maybe I didn't lose my touch. Hit one of those SK 3XD at 3.9mph. So I checked out the area and was only seeing balls of bait but no fish or groups or schools. Kept going up river, running and looking and thought I found some around R31. Started trolling and worked up past R33 but no see and no catch. Decided to run down to B and B creeks and the condos. Was still seeing balls of bait and mayber some stripers in very small groups. Worked the area and the other side and FINALLY whacked a 26.5" at noon in the mouth of Becky's. Odd, I had just put out the A-rigs and had one big crank still running down the center. The fish hit the crank at 1.7mph. Hmmmm. But no schools, just one or two or maybe three. No dice on the A-rigs. By then the weekenders were starting strong so I headed in. Just think, with the new big boat, I'll be able to stay out all I want. Weather looks rough this week, so I will certainly finish the garage. Can't wait...
