It was so nice to see a huge flash of white as a striper rolled over on my yozuri F mackeral plug and hooked himself up twice and then a tough reel in sideways instead of the traditional fight.
IT was on my fifth cast on an outgoing tide which was great and then it turned off despite numerous casts with yozuri's and finally a striper swiper too just in case they wanted a popper. He was
32 inches long and i would have released him but he wouldn,t have survived that hookup. No signs of Blue's or bird's just a knowledge of my spot and where to be. I unfortunately found that i had a big tear in my waders and ended up driving home with one wet leg. Today i go buy a patch kit first thing.:bc:
