Lake Anna Stripers...I think we are on 'em!

 Screen shot from today. Bumped the sensitivity up to see the sinker [horizontal line at 32 feet] coming through the Stripers. Since there were so many Stripers here we were testing to see if they would hit a piece of lead. No takers!

 Chris and Tim had their hands full today fishing with Tony

 Pastor Ross and Patty with their limit

 Don put Delmont, Phil and Bubba on some nice ones

Roger, CJ, Bubba and Don

We are consistently catching our limits of Stripers now and the action
is only going to get better. This is no longer just fishing, it's catching!

Didn't get Punked today!

Walter [Thumbs], Austin, Punk Sr., Eric and Punk Jr.

Sunny and Pretty, Water Temperature 80* and Clear

Today stated off cloudy so I pulled boards over 5 to 25 foot flats. We took a lot of hits but after going through about 40 baits with only 5 keepers I decided to change the game plan. The sun had come out and I was ready to put these guys on some fish but I don't think they quite knew what they were in store for. After about 45 minutes of madness I started running low on baits so I went and threw and in one throw put 100 more baits in the tank. I was ready then so I put the guys on the fish and we wore them out. Today we took well over 100 strikes, boated 70 Stripers [give or take a couple], and caught over thirty keepers, releasing the healthy ones.  
Prayers go out to Punk Sr., best wishes on your treatments.
Can't wait to get you back out there to show the boys how its done!

The Spawn is on!

 Steve and Jeff

First four fish for Bryan's boat this morning

Sunny and Warm, Water Temperature 67* and clear
Today Bryan and myself caught bait before dawn and he had his baits in the water before first light. Before Steve and Jeff got on my boat Bryan had already boated thee nice four Stripers. What a difference fishing Lake Anna during the week verses the weekend...we didn't see a boat till 9 this morning and the weather finally was beautiful. Both boats boated together about 50 Stripers by noon today and fun was had by all. The Stripers are starting to rut and for the next few weeks fishing should be great.

Clyde Thompson

 Clyde
22 pounds, 34 1/2 inches
 
Clyde, Bobby, Bryce, David, Alex and Landon

Sunny and Warm, Water Temp 66*
Today was Clyde's day, first time fishing for Stripers and the first Striper he has ever caught! This Citation hooked up about 5 feet off the bank and headed straight toward the channel. Couldn't have been a better scenario, the fish hit and went away from the rest of the boards which made battling the fish a breeze. None of us realized how big the fish was till he hit the deck, it seemed as round as it was long! Overall fishing today was poor due to it being the weekend with a huge Bass tournament, gobs of Striper boats and every pleasure boater enjoying the 70 degree day. We are still anticipating the time when the Stripers will spawn so we can really have some fun. Hope it happens within the next few weeks.
